ABSTRACT: Invasive Lobular Carcinoma of the Breast: Mammographic Characteristics and Computer-aided Detection PURPOSE: To characterize the mammographic appearance of invasive lobular carcinoma in a large series of screening-detected consecutive breast cancers and to evaluate the ability of a computer-aided detection system to mark these carcinomas. CONCLUSION: Spiculated masses and architectural distortions are the predominant appearances of invasive lobular carcinoma, and a computer-aided detection system correctly marked a high percentage of invasive lobular carcinoma lesions.
