title: [Multiphase instrumental diagnosis of minimal breast cancer].
abstract: The value of a breast surgery procedure based on clinical examination, mammography, telethermography, echotomography and cytological examination for the diagnosis of symptomatic or high risk patients was tested through a retrospective survey of 28 patients with minimal breast cancer. The data confirm that mammography is a much better clinical and instrumental test than other systems. When associated with radiography it gives definite, early diagnosis of more breast neoplasias than other methods, facilitating prognosis and reducing the number of biopsies necessary.
