Imaging surveillance suggested for radial scars found on DBT
By Amerigo Allegretto
Imaging surveillance may be the way to go for tracking radial scars without atypia found on screening DBT.
March 14, 2024
Images taken from a 40-year-old woman with calcifications detected on baseline screening mammography show (A) lateral and (B) craniocaudal magnification views for grouped pleomorphic calcifications in right breast (circles). Stereotac-tic-guided core-needle biopsy yielded radial scar without atypia. Subsequent surgical resection yielded radial scar (i.e., not upstaged). Image courtesy of ARRS.

The tumor localization/visualization results obtained by the proposed AI algorithm. Original chest x-ray images with a lesion (red circle = radiologists’ annotation of the lesion location) and AI's lesion localization result. These examples demonstrate that the proposed technique can successfully detect humeral tumors. Image and caption courtesy of Radiology: Artificial Intelligence.
