[Radiologic breast diagnosis following breast-preserving operations and radiation].

The postoperative and post-irradiation changes occurring in the female breast that can be recorded via mammography, were demonstrated in 74 patients with carcinoma of the breast in the T1 and T2 stages after partial resection and postoperative irradiation. 47 of these women received exclusively percutaneous treatment, whereas 27 received combined treatment both percutaneously and interstitially. The changes occurring in the cutis and in the mammary gland tissue were analysed in respect of first and follow-up examinations. Problems of differential diagnosis were discussed and demonstrated.
