Breast Oncology: Techniques, Indications, and Interpretation

Linda Moy, MD is part of a Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Team at the NYU Clinical Cancer Center, where she and her team developed an algorithm for triaging women at high-risk for breast cancer. Dr. Moy developed the Breast MRI program at the NYU Clinical Cancer Center helping to optimize breast MRI at 3.0 Tesla. Additionally, Dr. Moy developed the Breast MRI Interventional Procedures Program, which includes MR guided core biopsies and MRI localizations.Samantha L. Heller, PhD, MD, is a consultant Radiologist in the Breast Imaging department at St George's Hospital, London. Prof. Heller is the co-director for the Breast Multidisciplinary Team Course (2015) at St George's Hospital, and lectures on Breast Anatomy on the radiography course at the hospital, amongst others.

“This book is a comprehensive overview of the now well-established technique of breast MRI in the assessment of breast disease. … This book is most likely to be of interest to radiologists in sub-specialty training in breast imaging, but would also be of interest as a reference text to consultant radiologists established in reporting breast MRI with a moderate level of experience. … The book is compact and well laid out.” (Mamatha Reddy, RAD Magazine, June, 2018)
