Madjar and Dr. E. Mendelson in continuing education has established their reputation as two of the leading authorities in breast sonography...This second edition of the book has been revised to include North American practice patterns; therefore indications for breast sonography and the technical standards outlined in this text are in accord with those of the American College of Radiology...A particularly commendable aspect of the book is that it helps standardize the examination technique and the interpretation of findings. This text is a timely addition to the literature and provides a reference that will be useful to any specialist who performs or is interested in starting to perform sonography. --European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging Author InformationProfessor of Radiology.
