Tribute to Professor Kobayashi

In recent years the number of ultrasonic breast examinations
has increased significantly due to the greater concern for breast disease detection and diagnosis,
the realization that X-ray mammography is not sufficiently sensitive or specific as a stand-alone imaging technique,
the desire to avoid unnecessary open biopsies, and the recent availability of high-quality scanning equipment
suitable for displaying breast anatomy and pathology
