Anatomical-radiological correlations: architectural distortions.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Architectural distortions consist of convergence areas and local retractions at the border of the gland. The authors examine the semiologic features of the distortions and their different causes, together with their pathological anatomy correlations. The predominant benign causes are the proliferative Aschoff body and the main malignant cause is infiltrating lobular carcinoma.

Spiculated Lesions and Architectural Distortions Detection in Digital Breast Tomosynthesis Datasets
Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) is a new 3D imaging technique aiming at overcoming some limitations of mammography. A computer aided detection system may help the radiologist to process the increased amount of data of this new modality. In this paper we propose to address the detection of masses and architectural distortions in DBT datasets. To achieve this task, we propose a detection schem...
متن کاملAutomated detection methods for architectural distortions around skinline and within mammary gland on mammograms
The architectural distortion is a very important finding in interpreting breast cancers as well as microcalcification and mass on mammograms. However, it is more difficult for physicians to detect architectural distortion than microcalcification and mass. The purpose of this study is to develop two detection approaches for architectural distortions existing around skinline and within mammary gl...
متن کاملComputerized Scheme for Histological Classification of Masses with Architectural Distortions in Ultrasonographic Images
Architectural distortion is an important ultrasonographic indicator of breast cancer. However, it is difficult for clinicians to determine whether a given lesion is malignant because such distortions can be subtle in ultrasonographic images. In this paper, we report on a study to develop a computerized scheme for the histological classification of masses with architectural distortions as a diff...
متن کاملLymphoma Affecting the Breast: A Pictorial Review of Multimodal Imaging Findings
Hematological malignancies rarely affect the breast, and the majority of those that do are lymphomas. In this review, we describe the clinical aspects and multimodal imaging findings of breast lymphoma. We also illustrate the key clinical and radiological findings that allow it to be distinguished from various other malignant and benign diseases of the breast. Breast lymphoma manifests as a bre...
متن کاملEvidence Based Detection of Spiculated Lesions and Architectural Distortions
DISTORTIONS Mehul Sampat, Mia Markey, Alan Bovik The University of Texas at Austin e-mail: [email protected] Screening mammography, x-ray imaging of the breast, is currently the most effective tool for early detection of breast cancer. However mammography is not perfect. Detection of suspicious abnormalities is a repetitive, fatiguing and extremely difficult task for radiologists. A number ...
