3.1 Ductal Carcinoma in Situ
The term:Clonal proliferation of malignant epithelial cells derived from terminal ductal lobular units anduninvasive basement membrane.
Clinical manifestation:
●Asymptomatic:Molybdenum target found calcification
●Touching a lump or mammography to find a mass/symmetry
●Nipple discharge
Population distribution characteristics:
●Age 40-60 years old susceptible disease
●Molybdenum target screening can improve detection rate:25%-33%of all screening cancers,5%of symptomatic cancers
Mammography:
●Calcification is most common:Accounting for 70%-80%of all ductal carcinoma in situ
☆Fine line or branch calcification:This performance is highly suggestive of ductal carcinoma in situ and is common in high-grade ductal carcinoma in situ
☆Polymorphic calcification:25%-40%for ductal carcinoma in situand this performance can be seen at any level
☆Unshaped calcification:20%is malignant;90%of ductal carcinoma in situ
●Calcification distribution:
The most common group distribution
Line or segment distribution:this phenomenon suggests ductal carcinoma in situ
●Tumor with calcification:clear edge

●Morphological performance is more important than functionality
●Non-tumor reinforcement of line or segmental clusters
●Enhanced time signal strength curve changeable:slow inflow or platform type visible
Image inspection recommendation:
●Best image inspection method:Molybdenum target and MR
