Review :
Cases are well presented...image quality is excellent, allowing adequate assessment of unknown cases...tables clearly document the findings. The index is good, making this an excellent text for reference use, as well as for self-teaching in mammography education and board certification preparation.--RadiologyThis is another excellent book on mammography by the same author who gave us Practical MR Mammography. This is a book that any radiologist interested in the study of breast disease should have. Junior radiologists in particular should study this book, from which slowly they will acquire greater confidence when facing breast imaging.--Clinical Imaging This high quality atlas describes a hundred cases covering all aspects of breast pathology. Each case is beautifully illustrated with clinical photographs of breast abnormalities and reproductions of all relevant imaging of an extremely high quality. [The book] lends itself for use as a reference text..[it] will act as an adjunct to other reading for the trainee radiologist or advanced practitioner in breast imaging.--RAD MagazineThe quality of images and explanation of imaging findings in this book is superior. The consistent use of the BI-RADS lexicon is excellent...useful...[for] preparing for the boards.--Doody's Book Reviews
