This superbly illustrated atlas of breast tomosynthesis covers all aspects and applications of the technology, which reduces tissue overlap and facilitates the recognition of small cancers. After clear explanation of basic principles of the technique, individual chapters address diagnostic criteria, indications, and use of breast tomosynthesis as a screening tool. The findings obtained in the full range of benign and malignant conditions, including postoperative changes, are then presented with the aid of a wealth of high-quality illustrations from case examples. Detailed attention is paid to the BI-RADS classification, bearing in mind the ability of tomosynthesis to reduce categorizations as BI-RADS 3 and 0, thereby decreasing the recall rate. The book concludes by examining tomosynthesis-guided interventions such as vacuum-assisted breast biopsy and galactography.

Martin Sonnenschein is a board-certified radiologist who is currently Head of the Department of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine at Engeried Hospital, Bern, Switzerland, which is a EUSOMA-certified Breast Center of the Lindenhof group. Dr. Sonnenschein completed his medical degree at Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität (University of Bonn) in 1994. After undertaking residencies in Internal Medicine and Diagnostic Radiology, he became senior resident in the Departments of Diagnostic Radiology at Inselspital Bern and Sonnenhof AG, Bern and an Associate Partner in the Brunnhof Radiology Group. His special interest is the radiological aspects of senology, with a particular focus on breast tomosynthesis. He is a leading pioneer in the field: he integrated breast tomosynthesis into his daily practice and diagnostic workup as long ago as 2008 and organized the first workshop on the subject in the German-speaking countries in 2010. The first installation of the C-View software worldwide was at Engeried Hospital in 2012. Dr. Sonnenschein was also one of the first users of tomosynthesis-guided vaccum-assisted biopsy (T-VAB). He is the author of more than 30 scientific publications in peer-reviewed journals.

"This mammography atlas presents a detailed and extensively illustrated account of DBT in modern breast radiology practice and will be a valuable addition to the library of any department implementing this important new technology." (Michael J. Michell, RAD Magazine, May, 2018)
