Abstract

Breast carcinoma is the leading cause of cancer death in women in the United States. Recent technological advances have resulted in multiple imaging methods designed to improve the detection of breast cancer. These imaging methods are discussed. Mammography remains the most accurate imaging method used to evaluate the breast. Automated waterpath whole-breast ultrasound is the most useful adjunctive examination to mammography at the present time.
