Breast cancer is one dominating malignancy in women all over the world. The incidence of breast cancer is about 68 cases per 100,000 women (Rozhkova et al. 2008; Chissov et al. 2011 ) and is associated with high mortality. Late diagnosis of breast cancer is registered in 40 % despite seeming availability and the simplicity of breast examination: 25.5 % of patients have stage III and 12.3 % stage IV. Methods of diagnostic imaging are of great value for breast pathology.
