[Breast cancer. Sonography and magnetic resonance mammography].
Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor in women: Almost 10% will suffer from breast cancer during their life; almost half of these will die of it. The spectrum of radiologic methods for diagnosing breast cancer is wide, including X-ray mammography, ultrasound, magnetic resonance mammography, and minimally invasive biopsies. This second part of two covers ultrasound of the breast and magnetic resonance mammography.
