Atlas of Lymphoscintigraphy and Sentinel Node Mapping A Pictorial Case-Based Approach /

Lymphoscintigraphy is now widely applied for radioguided biopsy of the sentinel lymph node in patients with solid cancers and is considered crucial for adequate planning of oncologic surgery in a growing number of cancers. This atlas presents a collection of richly illustrated teaching cases that de...
