The role of the mammographer is expanding beyond issuing reports, such as evidence of malignancy or no findings of malignancy, to one including accurate diagnosis of benign disease. Most radiographic abnormalities, as well as most palpable ones, are not carcinomas. To decrease unnecessary biopsies ...

Imaging is also essential for guiding biopsy for tissue diagnosis. Summary: The retroareolar region is the area within two cm from nipple–areola complex. Despite its superficial location, ultrasound assessment can be difficult due to artefacts such as acoustic shadowing, which can mimic or mask a...

On both axes, larger numbers indicate stronger confidence that spiculation was present.Reprinted from [58] with permission. Sign in to download full-size ...
The breast containing an augmentation implant presents a challenge to the mammographer and is often considered unsuitable for adequate mammographic evaluation. A modified positioning technique is described. By displacing the implant posteriorly against the chest wall and pulling breast tissue over and in ...

active arm, an estimated 5-year risk will inform mammography and/or tomosynthesis screening every 1 to 4 years (with or without ultrasound depending on breast density). The trial has a non-inferiority design and the primary outcome is the incidence of stage >II breast cancers for the risk-st...
