Breast MRI : Diagnosis and Intervention

Drs. Elizabeth Morris and Laura Liberman, two rising stars in breast MRI from the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer
Center, edited this complete, superbly illustrated practical guide. The comprehensive text is written by contributors
from the top cancer centers in the world. Introductory chapters are devoted to diagnosis and cover the basics of
performing breast MRI exams, setting up a breast MR program, and understanding clinical indications. Additional
chapters discuss breast interventional procedures, including the surgeon's use of MR and MR-guided needle nterventions.
A comprehensive diagnostic atlas completes the volume and addresses the spectrum of clinical situations, such as
various carcinomas, special tumor types, and benign histologies. Radiologists, residents, and fellows will benefit from
this guide's thorough examination of image interpretation, which highlights pitfalls that specialists must recognize.
