Mammographic microcalcifications are associated with many benign lesions, ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and invasive cancer. Careful assessment criteria are required to minimise benign biopsies ...
Up to 80% of breast calcifications found on mammography (breast X-ray) are focally active processes of a benign nature. Mammography is a great tool used in order to detect breast pathologies before ...
A gel sometimes used during surgery to stop bleeding could cause misleading mammograms. Researchers reported seven cases in which a sealant called FloSeal, used during lumpectomies, mimicked malignant ...
Figure 1: Results of microcalcification detection experiments. (a) A benign example of calcification. The green boxes represent benign lesions. ‘GT’ refers to the gold standard label given by the ...

Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is considered the earliest form of breast cancer and is the most common type of non-invasive breast cancer. Ductal means that the cancer starts inside the milk ducts, ...
An interdisciplinary collaboration 10 years in the making used a materials science approach to 'fingerprint' the calcium mineral deposits known as microcalcifications that reveal pathological clues to ...
Effect of microscopic residual tumor (MRT) at surgical margin of resection (SMR) in invasive breast cancer (IBC) on survival of non-Hispanic white women in central Pennsylvania (PA) No significant ...
Breast calcifications are deposits of calcium that can be seen on a mammogram of the breast. There are two types: macrocalcifications and microcalcifications. Informational brochures about mammography ...
