Automated Breast Ultrasound for Screening and Diagnosis (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Due to its lower cost, safety, and usefulness for cancer detection in dense breasts, ultrasound has become an increasingly important modality in breast imaging. Automated Breast Ultrasound for Screening and Diagnosis brings you fully up to date with recent technical advances in all aspects of breast ultrasound, with focus on whole breast imaging using volumetric automated breast ultrasound equipment. It provides comprehensive, practical information including step-by-step guidance on performing and interpreting supine and prone patient automated screening and diagnostic studies. Key topics include: where and when breast ultrasound is used in today’s multimodality workups to complement MRI, 2D mammography, and 3D tomosynthesis; how to perform procedures effectively; and strategies for improving positive predictive values for biopsy.

• 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
