Reviews

“This book covers an enormous amount of material related to breast core biopsies. … The photographs are a real standout in this book both in terms of technical quality and how well the sequences of images highlight important points in the surrounding text. … The book does a good job of providing detailed information on a very specific field and presenting it in a format that is user friendly for pathology residents and surgical pathologists.” (Linton Sellen, Doody’s Book Reviews, June, 2017)
