A team led by Lin et al. developed a deep-learning mammography system. This system is trained to identify microcalcification and focuses on interpreting it. Based on the study's findings, a critical ...

Abstract: The presence of microcalcification clusters in mammograms contributes evidence for the diagnosis of early stages of breast cancer. Computer aided diagnosis (CAD) can be used as a useful tool ...

Vascular calcification causes significant morbidity and occurs frequently in diseases of calcium/phosphate imbalance. Radiolabeled sodium fluoride positron emission tomography/computed tomography has ...

Carotid atherosclerotic plaque microcalcification independently associated with recurrent neurovascular events reveals a pilot study published in the International Journal of Stroke.

ITHACA, N.Y. -- An interdisciplinary collaboration 10 years in the making used a materials science approach to “fingerprint” the calcium mineral deposits known as microcalcifications that reveal ...

Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are highly lethal diseases without effective clinical predictors and therapeutic targets. Vascular microcalcification, as detected by fluorine-18-sodium fluoride, has ...

Abstract: Mammography is a widespread imaging technique for the early detection of breast cancer. Microcalcification clusters, visible in X-ray images, are important indicators for the diagnosis. In ...
