Breast Diagnostic Imaging and Therapeutic Guidance provides a concise, practical, and practice-based source of up-to-date diagnostic and therapeutic information for the general radiologist. In the diagnostic phase of evaluating breast disorders, the overriding consideration in the examination and assessment is to reduce false diagnoses to the absolute minimum-a principle wholly in the interests of the patient. The particular diagnostic pathway chosen will depend on the highly variable individual presentations and the associated findings. A major focus of the book is the comparative value of the various diagnostic imaging modalities. As well as discussing conventional mammography and adjunct modalities such as breast ultrasound and galactography, the text also showcases the superior utility of contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging in providing the highest rate of detection of cancers at any stage. As well as radiological diagnosis, sections written by top specialists cover the interventional procedures for obtaining biopsies and also the surgical and medical therapy of breast carcinoma. Key Breast Diagnostic Imaging and Therapeutic Guidance is certain to prove an invaluable tool for all general radiologists involved in the evaluation and treatment of patients with breast cancer.

Acclaim for the first edition highlights its value as a practical reference for radiologists, particularly in breast MRI, with strong recommendations for its informative content and clear illustrations. High-resolution MR mammography is recognized as superior for detecting invasive and intraductal breast cancers, playing a crucial role in early detection and effective evaluation of breast disease. It is also a reliable method for staging and follow-up after a breast cancer diagnosis. The availability of dedicated materials for percutaneous MRI-guided needle biopsies allows for histologic diagnosis of MRI-detected findings. The revised and expanded second edition of this work addresses these advancements, featuring a goal-oriented structure that guides readers on when to perform breast MRI, examination procedures, and accurate diagnosis while minimizing errors. It includes over 1300 new, high-quality images produced with state-of-the-art equipment, summarized disease characteristics, and updated coverage of DCIS and MRI-BIRADS. This resource enhances readers' imaging skills and provides clear answers to MR mammography questions, supporting them in addressing specific challenges in practice.

A step-by-step guide to performing image-guided breast interventionsWritten by a team of experts, this practical how-to guide provides a systematic overview of the most current image-guided interventional techniques used to diagnose breast abnormalities. In the first part of the book, the authors discuss how to acquire tissue samples using minimally invasive procedures such as ultrasound-, x-ray-, and MRI-based interventions, and present information on pretherapeutic localization and classification of lesions. The second part of the book covers the essentials of fine-needle aspiration and cytologic assessment, followed by a chapter on histologic evaluation and up-to-date pathology reporting categories for core and vacuum biopsy specimens. Features:1,295 high-quality clinical images from the authors' daily practice illustrate radiographic findings and examination approaches More than 50 cases studies for self-assessment Separate chapters on patient preparation, instrumentation, galactography and ductoscopy, and sentinel node biopsy Color-coded text boxes highlight tips, tricks, pitfalls, checklists, and guidelines for rapid review of essential concepts Consistent chapter structure for maximum accessibilityInterventional Breast Imaging is a must-have resource for all radiologists and gynecologists. It will improve the accuracy and confidence of any clinician involved in image-guided breast interventions.
