Abstract
Disease conditions of the breast are very common. Patients with such conditions often present to surgeons for both diagnostic evaluation and treatment. Nearly all of them will require breast imaging. This article summarizes the use, applicability, and concordance assessment of mammography, ultrasonography, and magnetic resonance imaging in patients who have breast complaints or abnormalities on clinical examination or imaging.
