Reviews

From the reviews: This book is intended as an up-to-date reference work of all radiologic interventional breast techniques. ! The chapters are all well written and detailed, focusing on practical aspects ! . The book is well-referenced and generously illustrated, and the figures are of high quality. This clinically oriented book is useful for anyone working with imaging-guided breast needles biopsies but is especially recommended for residents and radiologists with less experience in these procedures.
