Up-to-date breast cancer imaging

Introduction. Breast cancer is a major health and economic problem in Serbia. On the one hand, most patients see doctor at an advanced stage of disease, on other screening response rate low. Early detection increases chances survival. Digital mammography gold standard breast imaging, together with supplemental ultrasound tomosynthesis. Mammography combined tomosynthesis has greater regardless density, although difference more pronounced high-density lesions, it fewer falsenegative results than alone. Ultrasound, apart from being complementary method, ideal for guided biopsy. Magnetic resonance imaging method highest sensitivity invasive important role evaluation post-therapeutic preoperative preparation. spectroscopy measures choline levels helps to differentiate malignant benign lesions. It also promising early assessment response. Positron emission tomography likely gain significant roles near future, especially measuring treatment
