 | Evaluation of breast calcifications. | Figure 0007: Mammogram shows amorphous calcifications (arrow). A hook-wire localization (arrowhead) was performed; the histopathology report did not show any malignancyBottom Line: Various patterns of calcifications occur in the breast; some benign, some malignant.A knowledge of these patterns on mammography helps in accurate interpretation and management. | Nalawade YV - Indian J Radiol Imaging (2009 Oct-Dec) |

 | Three-dimensional imaging for hepatobiliary and pancreatic diseases: Emphasis on clinical utility. | Figure 0001: 3-D surface-rendering image of a gallbladder polyp (arrow) in a 30-year-old man. On pathologic examination after cholecystectomy, this lesion was confirmed to be an adenomatous polypBottom Line: Three-dimensional (3D) imaging allows disease processes and anatomy to be better understood, both by radiologists as well as physicians and surgeons. 3D imaging can be performed with USG, CT scan and MRI, using different modes or rendering that include surface-shaded... | Kim SJ, Choi BI, Kim SH, Lee JY - Indian J Radiol Imaging (2009) |
