Your practical aid to confident diagnosis! Biopsy Interpretation of
the Breast, 3rd Edition helps you correctly identify the full range
of pathologic alterations encountered in breast tissue. The
intuitive organization approaches diagnosis the way you do,
grouping lesions according to their histologic patterns and then
pointing out the characteristics that distinguish one type of
lesion from another. The authors emphasize the role of adjunctive
studies in solving diagnostic problems wherever appropriate,
explain the clinical significance of the various diagnoses and
their impact on patient management, highlighting key clinical and
management points throughout - giving you the broad context you
need to generate the most accurate pathology reports for every
patient.4 stars from Doody's! " The greatest strength of this book
is the ability of the authors to provide expert consultation on so
many diagnostic entities due in part to their experience but also
to their teaching ability. This is an excellent resource for any
practicing pathologist." - Doody's Review ServiceKey Features

genetics, and other crucial developments in the field. Navigate
