Mammographic and morphologic examination was carried out in 136 females bearing microcalcinates in breast tissue. Morphologic examination identified benign tumors (mostly fibrous cysts) in 72.1% and cancer (mostly ductal and lobular carcinoma in situ or initial signs of invasion) in 27.9% of cases. Calcinates occurred mainly in the epithelium and incipient cancer complexes. The analysis of the data showed shape, structure and distinctness of contours of calcinates to be instrumental in differentiating between malignant and benign lesions.
对136例乳腺组织中有微小钙化的女性进行了乳房X线摄影和形态学检查。形态学检查发现，72.1%的病例为良性肿瘤（主要是纤维囊肿），27.9%的病例为癌症（主要是导管原位癌和小叶原位癌或浸润初期迹象）。钙化主要发生在上皮和早期癌复合体中。数据分析表明，钙化的形状、结构和轮廓清晰度有助于区分恶性和良性病变。
