520    "Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed malignancy 
       in women and the second leading cause of cancer-related 
       deaths in American women. Although cardiovascular-related 
       deaths significantly outnumber breast cancer deaths, 
       breast cancer is arguably the most feared diagnosis among 
       American women. Great strides have been made to heighten 
       public awareness of breast cancer, with particular 
       emphasis on early detection with mammography. Breast 
       radiologists regularly witness the extreme anxiety that 
       just the thought of being diagnosed with breast cancer can
       cause a patient. This anxious anticipation is often 
       heightened by a lack of knowledge about what to expect 
       from the process of breast imaging evaluation, which is 
       frustrating for both patient and practitioner and can 
       negatively affect the experience. Physicians often 
       encounter patients who have little or no understanding of 
       the reasoning behind the examination or procedure about to
       be performed-sometimes even up to the day of their breast 
       cancer surgery. Furthermore, most women who undergo breast
       evaluations will not be diagnosed with cancer. The 
       incidence of breast cancer is only 125.3 per 100,000 women
       (or 3-6 in every 1,000 screenings), however, symptoms of 
       benign breast abnormalities are quite common and impact 
       many more lives. Accurately diagnosing these non-cancerous
       conditions can alleviate much anxiety, in addition to 
       helping patients towards a correct treatment plan. The 
       Breast Test Book is a straightforward guide to the process
       of radiologic breast evaluations. Based on the most 
       current scientific research and best standards of clinical
       practice, it will help debunk myths, shed light on 
       misinformation, and provide clear facts about what women 
       should expect from these screenings. This improved 
       understanding will ultimately allow patients to play more 
       active roles in their own care and, in the event that a 
       diagnosis is made, give them confidence in their 
       treatment. "--|cProvided by publisher.
