✦ Synopsis

This book presents over 500 breast imaging questions with detailed answers to prepare readers for the Radiology Core Exam. Radiology residents looking for preparation materials to use for the Core Exam are often frustrated with the lack of resources available. This book addresses that lack by providing an informative and invaluable high-yield breast imaging case review book for board review and lifelong learning purposes.

Editors and authors have collected numerous high quality breast imaging cases that directly align with each diagnosis the Core Exam has included in their study guide. Cases include modalities from mammogram, ultrasound, and MRI. High quality images are included for each case. The book is structured to follow the layout and topics of the ABR Study Guide, making all material boards-relevant. Within each section, cases are presented with boards-style multiple choice questions and detailed explanations, giving the reader over 500 breast imaging questions to learn from. Cases will include diagnosis, etiology, imaging characteristics, and management. Additional topics related to boards preparation and clinical practice are also addressed, including indications for screening, regulations, physics, and quality/safety.

This is an ideal guide for radiology residents preparing for the breast imaging portion of their Radiology Core Examination, and for continued practice and learning for practicing radiologists.
