title: [Measurement of breast cancer dimensions: correlation between mammographic and macroscopic data].
abstract: In this study the maximum diameters of 48 mammary carcinomas of various istotype detected preoperatively on mammography are compared with the diameters of neoplasms diagnosed by the anatomo pathologist on macroscopic examination of the excised part. Statistical analysis has shown that for every mammographic value it is possible to infer the corresponding real macroscopic value by adding or subtracting 0.45 cm.
