In outpatient breast clinics, effective communication with patients must be established in order to address symptoms that in most cases are not serious but can be very worrying and sometimes lead to misdiagnosis and also to litigation. Outpatient consultations also offer an opportunity to encourage a healthy lifestyle and to provide information on matters such as risk assessment, screening and the most reliable websites. A well-functioning outpatient clinic is essential to a breast unit’s overall proficiency. Readers will find this book an invaluable aid to good practice. The authors place particular emphasis on quality indicators and key priorities for implementation of the main guidelines, at the same time specifying the level of evidence for them and  degree of recommendation. Practical measures for achieving the best results are highlighted, and helpful advice is provided on optimizing patient communication and reducing the psychological burden.SurgeryGynecology RadiologyOncology  Surgeryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H59001Gynecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H26006Diagnostic Radiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H29013Oncologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33160Surgery.Gynecology .Radiology.Oncology  .Surgery.Gynecology.Diagnostic Radiology.Oncology.610616.0757616.99449616994617618.1Pluchinotta Alfonso Medthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910300233003321The Outpatient Breast Clinic2529850UNINA
