Fig. 2. —52-year-old asymptomatic woman. Mediolateral oblique right mammogram shows linear and pleomorphic calcifications in segmental distribution spanning at least 5.0 cm at maximal diameter. Stereotactic 11-gauge directional vacuum-assisted biopsy was performed of two sites (arrows); both sites yielded ductal carcinoma in situ, but superior site also yielded microinvasion.
