Test yourself before the ARDMS tests you! Kathryn Gill’s Breast Sonography Review illuminates
the facts and principles on which you will be tested, hones your test-taking skills,
and reveals your strengths and weaknesses by exam topic. Based precisely on the breast
specialty exam outline published by ARDMS, this review contains 289 registry-like questions
together with answers, clear explanations, and quick references for further study. Image-based cases and schematic illustrations prepare
you to tackle images, anatomy, and pathology on the exam. Coverage includes breast
instrumentation and technique, normal anatomy, benign versus malignant features, specific
lesions (benign), specific lesions (malignant), and invasive procedures—all in the same
proportion as the exam itself. Breast Sonography Review is very effective in combination
with Ultrasound Physics Review: SPI Edition, by Cindy A. Owen, RDMS, RVT, FSDMS, and James A. Zagzebski, PhD. Why are the Davies mock exams so popular and effective?
Because they contain the same kinds of thought-provoking questions you will find on the
exam and help you pass! Approved for 6 hours of continuing medical education credit (CME).
