Atlas Of Breast Implant Ultrasound

This atlas is the first book on the use of high-resolution ultrasound to assess breast implants and identify the various potential breast implant-related complications, which are frequently asymptomatic. The aim is to provide radiologists, breast surgeons, plastic surgeons, and other medical staff with a comprehensive guide of high clinical value during not only the diagnostic but also the treatment process. To this end, a wealth of ultrasound images and videos are presented, along with surgical photos and videos and pathological findings. The coverage includes the role of ultrasound in the management of breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell carcinoma, with explanation of its value in distinguishing the type of implant shell, which is highly relevant in this disease. A concluding chapter presents a large series of instructive cases. The author has extensive experience in breast surgery and has been collecting implant-related data using high-resolution ultrasound, including data on the diagnosis of side effects, for more than a decade.

This atlas describes and illustrates a novel approach, referred to as full breast ultrasonography (FBU), that represents a challenge to conventional breast imaging diagnosis. The coverage encompasses examination technique, diagnostic criteria, the imaging features of a wide variety of lesions, and role in follow-up. FBU involves anatomic ultrasound scanning based on the ductal echography technique proposed by Michel Teboul, supplemented by Doppler and real-time sonoelastography. The approach offers a variety of advantages. Compared with MRI it has a lower cost, wider availability, better resolution, and improved correlation with anatomy. Compared with mammography it has the benefits of absence of irradiation and pain, applicability in all cases, and better overall accuracy. Furthermore, the standardized technique of acquisition and interpretation means that it is suitable as a screening test, unlike classic ultrasonography. FBU is applicable in ultrasound BI-RADS assessment and is of value in depicting both benign and malignant conditions. It can be recommended as a first-line method of diagnosis and for the follow-up of treated breasts, regardless of the patient’s age, sex, or physical condition.

An extensive armamentarium of imaging techniques can help you accurately detect all breast lesions and avoid missed diagnoses. This book greatly expands your options by integrating both mammographic and sonographic findings, with more than 200 case examples covering a wide range of clinical conditions. Its unique format—organized by two distinct tables of contents—helps you locate a specific topic by either mammographic lesion or sonographic image. The book highlights the importance of high-resolution sonography and its cross-correlation with mammography by providing a broad spectrum of imaging entities, from common pathologies to rare breast abnormalities. You'll also get helpful information on normal anatomy, new technology, instrumentation, and management issues. Special features of this state-of-the-art resource: Provides clear visual patterns—with more than 1,000 detailed illustrations—that help you identify both mammographic and sonographic abnormalities Presents more than 200 cases showing a variety of scenarios, all cross-referenced for easy use Includes two different tables of contents organized by both mammographic and sonographic findings—for easy and quick reference Gives you pearls and pitfalls describing your clinical and radiographic options for even the most unusual cases Offers magnified views of calcification lesions for clear demonstration of concepts Here is the quintessential imaging atlas that radiologists, residents, and other physicians need to accurately integrate mammographic and sonographic findings. Benefit from these unique diagnostic tools that will upgrade and refine your skills in virtually any clinical situation involving breast imaging!

KS Goleria has been a leader of Indian plastic surgery for more than fifty years. He has pioneered many new developments in craniofacial surgery, microsurgery, cleft lip and palate surgery and now the management of hemangiomas and vascular malformations. Forwarded by well-known Craniofacial and Reconstructive Surgeon from Institute of Craniofacial and Reconstructive Southfield, Michigan, USA. Each of the contributors have created areas of excellence in their respective fields. Lasers and Radiofrequency have emerged as important tools and are dealt with the aspect of the management of these lesi.

Comprehensive and to-the-point, Breast Imaging Cases covers the field of breast imaging for the radiology resident and practitioner. A new addition to the Cases in Radiology series, this book follows the clear and user-friendly format of problem and solution, presented in 100 unique cases. Featuring over 400 images, this case book examines the spectrum of common clinical issues in breast imaging, including classic and frequently encountered diagnoses, as well as rare findings. Cases are organized in order of increasing difficulty to facilitate learning and challenge the reader to probe further. Under examination are the gamut of cysts, calcifications, benign masses, and carcinomas found in breast imaging. The last section of cases is dedicated to breast MR. Each case is complete with relevant findings, differential diagnoses, management, and extensive teaching points.

Comprehensive visual guide emphasizing a multimodality approach to breast cancer diagnosis The second edition of this generously illustrated case-based reference provides a systematic visual collection of pathologic entities and a detailed assessment of how to optimize sonographic technique as well as how to approach the integration of mammography, sonography, MRI and PET/CT in breast cancer diagnosis. The book begins with a focus on teaching practical methods to analyze and incorporate mammographic, sonographic, and magnetic resonance findings in the clinical setting. The closing chapters are devoted to illustrating the applications of PET as demonstrated by specific clinical cases. Features of the second edition: Emphasis on the importance of high-resolution sonography Three new chapters on the use of MRI and PET in breast imaging Numerous new case studies -- including helpful pearls and pitfalls -- that focus on common and uncommon examples of metastatic and non-metastatic disease Charts and outlines that provide rapid reference for the clinical workup of a lesion More than 800 images that help identify both mammographic and sonographic abnormalities This thorough reference is ideal for radiologists, mammographers, oncologists, gynecologists and all clinicians looking to broaden their visual sonographic experience. Its user-friendly format makes it a handy text for radiology residents in breast rotations.

Atlas of Breast Imaging provides comprehensive information about mammography and ultrasound, correlating them with biopsy results. This second edition includes 111 case studies, complete with well-illustrated mammography and USG images, as well as descriptions of the pathologies. Most of the images in the first edition have been replaced by digital images, and the second edition is more comprehensive, containing 1000 images to cover most pathologies. All the case studies and images reflect the wide spectrum of mammography and sonography changes that may appear in a disease, rather than just the most common manifestation.

This atlas is an excellent visual aid to interpreting breast imaging findings and a valuable complement to Breast Imaging, Second Edition. The atlas contains 489 images depicting the various mammographic, ultrasonographic, and MRI findings encountered in clinical practice. Over 250 legends highlight key teaching points. The opening section presents screening cases. Subsequent sections are organized according to the categories defined in the American College of Radiology Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BIRADS(R)).
