| Popis: | Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) is an emerging breast imaging technique which we have shown in our institution to more accurately size tumours when compared with 2D mammography. In this study we have looked at the accuracy of DBT in the sizing of invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) when compared with MRI, the current imaging technique of choice. |
