Author Description

Following an introductory chapter, this atlas provides opportunity for readers to test their skill in interpreting the mammograms of a wide variety of pathologically proven cases. The cases were selected on the basis of their diversity of mammographic manifestations, with emphasis on the often subtle features of carcinoma. Each case begins with a short history, followed by mammograms for self testing. The test mammograms have been reproduced to full size and are free of arrows or other indicators of abnormalities. They are bounded by coordinate grids for location of abnormalities described in the findings and discussion sections. Important topics in the mammography literature are summarized.
