Figure 5
The correspondence between (a) a CT sagittal image and (b) a histology image. The histological examination shows the diffuse infiltrating tumour mass, consisting mainly of a dense accumulation of fibrotic matrix-rich tissue (arrows). This scar-like tumorous mass extensively replaces the parenchymal compartment of the breast. The few peripherally located glandular ducts display an augmented epithelial hyperplasia (circles). These histopathological findings are in line with the high radio opacity of the dense tissue mass detected within the synchrotron data set [panel (a), arrows].
