Mammography sensitivity limited by dense fibroglandular tissue has made a
supplemental modality such as US important for screening patients with dense BIRADS
C and D breasts. Automated Breast Ultrasound for Screening and
Diagnosis provides comprehensive, practical information on all aspects of whole
breast supine and prone patient automated ultrasound equipment and techniques,
performance and interpretation, use of AI-CAD, multimodality correlation, future
directions and much more-all abundantly illustrated and accompanied by a BIRADS
based Atlas of Vo-AUS case studies.
Provides comprehensive, practical information on all aspects of whole breast supine and prone patient automated ultrasound equipment and techniques, performance and interpretation, use of AI-CAD, multimodality correlations, and much more.
Helps you make the most of ultrasound’s advantages for detecting and diagnosing breast cancer, depicting what is inside a mass and defining its interaction with surrounding tissue, confirming benign findings, and explaining pain, discharge, or perception of thickening.
Discusses primary, supplemental, and personalized screening for women with dense breasts-why and when to choose ultrasound.
Covers both handheld (for axilla and interventional guidance) and automated whole breast ultrasound (Vo-AUS, ABUS, AUS, ABVS, AWBUS) devices that image the entire breast.
Contains over 520 high-quality images, accompanied by a unique atlas of case studies for BI-RADS assessment categories 1-6.
Includes dedicated chapters on breast anatomy, calcifications, the postoperative breast, and the male breast.
Discusses and classifies artifacts, especially shadowing-what causes them and how to resolve them.
Covers advances in ultrasound physics along with current research and future directions with a chapter on optoacoustic imaging, an US-laser hybrid modality offering vascular and anatomic lesion characterization.
An eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud. Additional digital ancillary content may publish up to 6 weeks following the publication date.
