Abstract:
Objective To assess the mammographic features of early breast carcinoma on CR and the correlation between the mammographic and pathologic findings.Methods CR mammograms in 43 patients with breast carcinoma confirmed pathologically,including ductal carcinoma in situ(DCIS)and DCIS associated with small invasive foci(n=30),infiltrating ductal carcinoma(n=12),invasive lobular carcinoma(n=1)were analysed retrospectively.The correlation between the mammographic features and pathologic findings was also evaluated.Results(1)In the 43 cases of early breast cancer,micro-calcifications(n=21),nodular(n=15),and asymmetric increasing density with disorder structure(n=7)were seen on CR mammograms.(2)mini-mammary structure of early breast carcinoma could be seen on CR mammography.Conclusion CR mammography is of significant value in diagnosis of early breast carcinoma.
