Large-Format Histology in Diagnosing Breast Carcinoma
This special issue represents a unique effort to review the experience with this beneficial technique in different pathology laboratories from the United States, Canada, and Europe. Although large-format histology was the topic of a few monographs and has also been discussed in individual reports in a number of journal articles, this special issue is the first to collect knowledge and experienc...
متن کاملBilateral and Multifocal Breast Cancer.
Widespread mammography and the increasing use of breast-conserving therapy make bilateral and multifocal breast cancer more important issues in patient care. The biologic mechanisms of these two cancer types differ. Bilateral breast cancer results from independent primaries in the two breasts, while multifocal breast cancer can result from either intramammary spread from a single index tumor or...
متن کاملOncoplastic Surgery of Multicentric (Multifocal) Breast Cancer
The breast-conserving treatment, in essence, implies not only providing breast-conserving surgery (BCS), but also adjuvant radiation therapy, that significantly reduces the risk of disease loco-regional and distant recurrence and is considered as an integral part of breast cancer conservative treatment [1,2].

متن کاملmultifocal/multicentric versus unifocal breast cancer: what is the difference?
background: although multifocal and multicentric breast cancers are a common entity, their clinical behavior is not well characterized. with the widespread use of mammographic screening and improved sensitivity of imaging modalities, the detection of multifocal and multicentric breast cancers is likely to continuously increase. many studies have consistently shown a correlation between multifoc...
متن کاملLarge-scale computations on histology images reveal grade-differentiating parameters for breast cancer
BACKGROUND Tumor classification is inexact and largely dependent on the qualitative pathological examination of the images of the tumor tissue slides. In this study, our aim was to develop an automated computational method to classify Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) stained tissue sections based on cancer tissue texture features. METHODS Image processing of histology slide images was used to dete...
