Utility of detection of breast calcifications with integrated real-time radiography system (IRRS) during digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT)-guided vacuum assisted biopsy (VAB): initial single-center experience
To determine whether the presence of calcifications in specimens collected during stereotactic-guided vacuum-assisted breast biopsies (VABB) is sufficient to ascertain their adequacy for final diagnosis at pat...

Breast arterial calcifications on mammography: intra- and inter-observer reproducibility of a semi-automatic quantification tool
A strong association between breast arterial calcifications (BAC) and cardiovascular disease has been demonstrated. However, BAC quantification tools are lacking. We evaluated the intra- and inter-observer rep...
