• This photograph shows numerous microcalcifications within dilated ducts.
• The lining cells show atypia, not visible at this magnfication, and lack a myoepithelial cell layer.
• The basement membrane is intact.
• Despite the fact that the lumen is not filled with abnormal cells, this is still a case of carcinoma in situ, ductal ("clinging type").
