From the reviews: From the New England Journal of Medicine 4/29/2004: ".. regales the reader with the insights. of one of mammography's great pioneers .. For the reader with a solid background in mammography, this book is a treasure .. the coverage on calcifications is wonderful. the true lessons are the images." "Lanyi presents a comprehensive and well-organized review of mammography and clinical breast disease that is correlated with updated concepts of breast disease richly illustrated with 400 figures. ... All sections are richly supplemented with high-quality illustrations ... . The chapters are also comprehensive ... . The book is well written, and new concepts of breast disease are presented ... . This book would work well as an introductory text, a reference text, or a teaching tool." (Suzanne Mastin, Radiology, April, 2005) "Mammography: Diagnosis and Pathological Analysis is designed for readers with a solid understanding of breast diseases and breast imaging. ... Overall ... is a good book. It should be an educational asset for upper-level radiology residents and fellows in breast imaging and breast pathology. With an extensive index and a lengthy list of references at the end of each chapter, the book is a valuable resource. The book would be a good addition to most radiology departmental libraries." (Parul Patel and Gary J. Whitman, The Journal of Nuclear Medicine, Vol. 48 (1), January, 2007)
Mammography can be thought of as a (sub)macroscopic "shadow pathology" - confident diagnosis necessitates comprehensive knowledge of breast pathology.
