2017 BMA Awards: Highly Commended, Radiology



"This is the most comprehensive book currently available on digital breast tomosynthesis. It is an all-inclusive resource that is an excellent tool for radiologists interested in learning about this imaging modality that has changed the practice of breast imaging. The authors offer many unique topics not covered in other books on the topic. The electronic version, including 3D content, is an excellent supplement. Given the relative novelty of this imaging modality and the lack of books on the topic, this one is a welcome resource and will serve as an authoritative teaching tool for anyone who reads it."
