Advantages of DBT include elimination of superimposed tissue, improved detection of otherwise hidden lesions, and significantly higher cancer detection rates compared to conventional mammography.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlthough it is increasingly being implemented in imaging centers, hands-on clinical learning tools have been lacking - until now. Written by renowned breast imaging specialists, this multimedia textbook is the most definitive DBT reference available. The first section is dedicated to DBT fundamentals, including physics, reconstruction methods, acquisition parameters, and patient dose and data size considerations. The next two sections are case-based clinical practice presentations, organized by DBT screening and diagnostic components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe use of 3D breast imaging to detect and differentiate malignancies from normal and benign findings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100 case studies include pertinent clinical information, introductory images, and findings labeled on subsequent images with BI-RADS terminology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull field digital mammography and\/or synthetic 2D mammogram images included in all case studies mirror what is typically encountered in DBT breast-imaging programs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClinical pearls on navigating the technology, interpreting images, making diagnoses, and decisions regarding follow-up studies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccompanying online videos further elucidate the still images\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis remarkable, interactive reference is a must-have for trainee and practicing radiologists and will also benefit mammography technicians.
