Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women, accounting for about 270,000 cases a year. The average woman has about a 12% chance of developing breast cancer.
This type of calcification is found as tiny specks of calcium in the breast. A cluster is an area where there is a proliferation of many microcalcifications. Such clusters may be cancerous. Breast microcalcifications are not felt on self breast examination. When a mammogram shows a spot of ...
Breast calcifications are small calcium deposits that develop in a woman's breast tissue. They are very common and are usually benign (noncancerous). In some instances, certain types of breast calcifications may suggest early breast cancer. There are two types of breast calcifications: macrocalc...
DCIS usually has no symptoms. Most of the time, it’s found by a mammogram and appears as small white clusters (calcifications) in odd shapes and sizes. DCIS can sometimes cause these symptoms: A breast lump Bloody nipple discharge
Key signaling pathways in breast cancer. Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease characterized by diverse subtypes. The development and progression of breast cancer result from the influence of subtype-specific and shared signaling pathways, as well as the intricate crosstalk between them. Inhibitors th...
The purpose of this study was to identify and characterize clusters in a heterogeneous breast cancer computer-aided diagnosis database. Identification of subgroups within the database could help elucidate clinical trends and facilitate future model building. A self-organizing map (SOM) was used to id...
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths among women and micro calcifications clusters are one of the most important indicators of breast disease. A Computer-Aided Diagnosis algorithm has been developed to assist radiologists in the diagnosis of mammographic clusters. Classification pe...
