Ductal Carcinoma in Situ (Med Power)

Ductal Carcinoma in Situ (Med Power) • This is a view of a single duct containing intraductal carcinoma. • The duct has been filled in by cells which appear in the section to be a monolayer with a few round holes (white arrows) in it. • The cells show no orientation to the "holes". • The cells are confined by a basement membrane (black arrows) to the duct.
