“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)
