This book is a common sense guide for women undergoing mammograms and other breast tests for general screening purposes or for specific problems, both benign and malignant. Women will gain a clear understanding of what to expect during and after testing, thus making the process less emotionally charged and equiping women to more fully cooperate with their own care. In the event that the final diagnosis is cancer, the journey to the diagnosis is clearly outlined for the reader.
In June 1998 the Fourth International Workshop on Digital Mammography was held in Nijmegen, The Netherlands, where it was hosted by the department of Radiology of the University Hospital Nijmegen. This series of meetings was initiated at the 1993 SPIE Biomedical Image Processing Conference in San Jose, USA, where a number of sessions were entirely devoted to mammographic image analysis. At very successful subsequent workshops held in York, UK (1994) and Chicago, USA (1996), the scope of the conference was broadened, establishing a platform for presentation and discussion of new developments in digital mammog raphy. Topics that are addressed at these meetings are computer-aided diagnosis, ima...
Imaging of the Breast, by Drs. Lawrence Bassett, Mary Mahoney, Sophia Apple, and Carl D'Orsi, enables you to more accurately interpret the imaging findings for even your most challenging cases. A comprehensive look at breast imaging, it correlates radiologic images with pathology slides to strengthen the accuracy of your diagnosis. This entry in the Expert Radiology Series also addresses topics such as appropriateness criteria for various imaging approaches, the BI-RAD quality assessment and reporting tool, and image-guided interventional procedures. Confidently interpret breast imaging findings by looking at how various radiologic presentations correlate with pathology studies. Make the best imaging decisions with comprehensive coverage of the appropriateness criteria for various imaging modalities. Comply with accepted reporting standards thanks to in-depth information on Breast Imaging-Reporting and Data System. Enhance your interventional radiology skills with detailed guidance of these techniques. View breast pathology clearly with full-color images throughout.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Workshop on Breast Imaging, IWDM 2016, held in Malmö, Sweden, in June 2016. The 35 revised full papers and 50 revised poster papers presented together with 6 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 89 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on screening; CAD; mammography, tomosynthesis, and breast CT; novel technology; density assessment and tissue analysis; dose and classification; image processing, CAD, breast density, and new technology; contrast-enhanced imaging; phase contrast breast imaging; simulations and virtual clinical trials.
The 2nd Edition of this well-received reference takes a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to the evaluation of benign and malignant breast disease. Internationally recognized specialists address the technical, interpretive, and diagnostic aspects of mammography. They also offer expanded coverage of all of the other imaging modalities available to identify diseases of the breast. This unique resource also addresses histopathology, surgery, epidemiology, clinical and historical issues, as well as today's hot topics, such as sentinel node biopsy. Correlates radiologic findings with pathologic considerations. Provides detailed, richly illustrated reviews of the techniques and procedures involved with mammography. Covers all breast imaging modalities, from digital mammography and MR to image-guided needle biopsy and galactography. Features internationally renowned Editors and contributors. Provides the latest scholarship on imaging techniques and interpretation of breast imaging studies. Offers expanded coverage on all of the imaging modalities available to identify breast disease. Incorporates state-of-the-art diagnostic images.
Digital mammography has many advantages over film-screen mammography, including faster acquisition, easier storage and easier retrieval of images. Written by expert radiologists and physicists, Digital Mammography: A Practical Approach compares digital mammography to conventional film-screen mammography, reviews clinical cases and explores newer modalities. Key topics include: • Digital detectors • Monitors • Image acquisition • Image storage, retrieval and transfer • Image interpretation and efficacy • Artifacts • A comparison of commercially available systems • Mobile digital mammography. An image atlas and sections on digital tomosynthesis and computed tomography of the breast enhance the text. Digital Mammography: A Practical Approach melds the worlds of clinical radiology and physics in an easy-to-understand, practical resource. A valuable addition to the shelf of radiologists, radiologic technicians, practising medical physicists and mammography technologists; and any practitioners developing and expanding digital mammography programs.
