Abstract
X-ray mammogram is the only breast cancer detection technique presently available with proven efficacy and nearly 50% of breast carcinomas demonstrate microcalcifications on mammograms. Moreover, it has been shown that clustered microcalcifications where the only sign of abnormality in about 36% of nonpalpable, clinically occult breast cancers.
