Imaging Features of Nonmalignant and Malignant Architectural Distortion Detected by Tomosynthesis

Abstract

Malignant AD and nonmalignant AD are more readily detected by 3D mammography than 2D mammography. Three-dimensional imaging features of AD can help to distinguish nonmalignant types in which symmetric or spoke-wheel spiculation with central lucency are more often seen and are more often occult on ultrasound.
