State-of-the-art resource details effective breast MRI techniques for
improved screening and diagnosis
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the breast has evolved into an
important breast cancer screening tool and major advance in women's
health. Breast MRI is currently the most sensitive detection technique
for both non-invasive and invasive cancers and follow-up in women with a
new breast cancer diagnosis. It is increasingly becoming the go-to
imaging method for screening women at high and intermediate risk of
breast cancer and those with dense breast tissue on mammography. Yet
despite its reliability and growing use, many radiologists lack the
expertise to accurately perform breast MR image interpretation.
Breast MRI Interpretation: Text and Case Analysis for Screening and
Diagnosis by Gillian M. Newstead reflects insights and expertise from
one of the leading authorities on breast imaging. The book is a highly
practical reference on evaluation and interpretation of breast MR
imaging, with discussion of the modality as a screening and diagnostic
tool. Topics include image acquisition and interpretation, clinical
implementation, managing findings, and overcoming problems.
Key Highlights
- About 3,000 illustrations from the University of Chicago including
single selected images, side-by-side images at different time points
and acquisition parameters, and 3-D images enhance understanding of
breast imaging
- Discussion of advanced acquisition techniques and future potential
applications including non-contrast imaging, quantitative dynamic
imaging, and artificial intelligence using advanced computer analytic
methods
This remarkable resource streamlines the breast MRI process, enabling
radiologists to incorporate this imaging modality into practice, conduct
screening and diagnostic exams more efficaciously, and interpret
findings accurately.
