Researchers at the University of Chicago have developed a computer technique that "learns" how benign and malignant breast calcifications appear on digital mammograms so not only can it detect them, ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Mammographic calcifications, a common feature of breast cancer, have remained enigmatic in terms of their molecular underpinnings and clinical implications, particularly in the hormone ...
