Intraductal Carcinoma (Low Power)

Intraductal Carcinoma (Low Power) • This is a low power view of a form of ductal carcinoma in situ. • The arrows point to inspissated secretions, which may calcify. • The secretions are not the same as necrosis. • The diagnosis of DCIS cannot be made at this power for this pattern ("clinging") of intraductal disease.
