Informative clinical cases are presented to illustrate how to take advantage of DBT in clinical practice. The importance of DBT as a diagnostic tool for both screening and diagnosis is increasing rapidly. DBT improves upon mammography by depicting breast tissue on a video clip made of cross‐sectional images reconstructed in correspondence with their mammographic planes of acquisition. DBT results in markedly reduced summation of overlapping breast tissue and offers the potential to improve mammographic breast cancer surveillance and diagnosis. Overview: ✓ Provides clear guidance on the use of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) ✓ Explains the value of DBT for both screening and diagnosis ✓ Presents clinical cases illustrating the potential benefits of DBT Readership: This book will be an excellent practical teaching guide for beginners and a useful reference for more experienced radiologists. ------------- Our members see more.
