Calcifications. These hard lumps are caused by a buildup of calcium. They might form after a breast reduction or tissue flap procedure. Lipomas. These fatty lumps grow slowly beneath the surface of the skin. Intraductal papillomas. These are wart-like growths that develop in the milk ducts...
Of the 16 women with mammographic lesions other than micro-calcifications 10 had a normal ultrasound. CONCLUSION: Radiological interpretation of indeterminate micro-calcifications as benign or malignant is unreliable. An isolated cluster of micro-calcification requires image-guided core biopsy with ...
Histological studies have mainly found giant cells, granulomas and fibroblasts in this inflammatory cluster [34]. Acoustic shadowing on ultrasound images is highly suggestive of gossypiboma, but must be confirmed on X-rays to rule out the presence of calcification that also produces acoustic ...
b. Nigerian cluster All lineages share a common origin in Uganda early in the 20th century, from where it dispersed west to West Africa via two introductions and east to Southeast Asia and then to the Pacific as follows: (1) a relative of the MR 766 prototype strain was introduced from...
When a seroma heals, it can often leave behind scar tissue and areas of hardened calcium deposits (calledcalcification). Neither of these effects are uncommon or serious, but they can affect the interpretation of mammograms. This is because calcification also occurs with breast cancer and can lead...
Although selected MRI techniques have been shown to have a number of advantages over CT, further research is required in order to confirm the obtained results, broaden our knowledge on the topic, and pinpoint the sequences most optimal for pleural imaging, as well as the best methods for ...
