Rezensionen

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. I recommend the book for all breast imaging centers performing these procedures." (Per Skaane, Acta Radiologica, Vol. 44, 2003)

"This beautiful text is edited by David Dershaw ... . Each chapter is very clearly written

and illustrated ... . Mention of legal concerns ... has recently become one of great concern to many UK radiologists and it is very pertinent to include a discussion of the issues involved here. ... this is an excellent and relevant text and will undoubtedly provide valuable information to anyone ... who is learning or performing interventional breast procedures as well as those assisting them."
