title: The post therapy breast.
abstract: Both systemic and local therapy, for conditions of the breast and unrelated to it, may produce mammographic changes. Some of these are characteristic, such as the pattern of scarring seen in reduction mammoplasty. In many other instances, however, the changes produced overlap features commonly seen in malignancy. A knowledge of the timing, natural history and spectrum of these changes will aid mammographic interpretation.
