Radiol Clin North Am. 1995 Nov;33(6):1231-45.

Abstract

It is hoped that this discussion makes it clear that unambiguous communication to the woman and health care provider is extremely desirable. This communication along established guidelines using standardized terminology should diminish lack of appropriate follow-up with its inherent negative outcomes.
