Abstract
Only in extremely skilful hands does radiology give the impressive results as reported by some French and Japanese authors. Normal routine examinations show very poor results (from 70% accuracy for invasive cancer to 14–20% in “early” cases.) Moreover, no valuable statistical data have been so far reported on the correlation between X-ray diagnosis, the histopathological staging of the lesion, and the parameters of the 5 year survival.
