This is based on specific MR features in terms of signal, enhancement, lesion margins, presence of bony destruction and compartmental involvement (Table 1).
There are several prognostic factors which determine tumor progression, and ultimately the patient's outcome, including positive resection margins, presence of local recurrence, histological entity and tumor grade, size, location and depth [ 3- 9].
After adjustment for menopause, surgical margins, presence of necrosis, microcalcifications and HT, RT was not effective in DIN2 patients showing a Ki-67 LI <14% (HRRT vs NoRT: 1.15 (95% CI, 0.47 2.80)).
These risk factors include surgical margin status, presence of perineural and vascular invasion, number of lymph node metastases and presence of extracapsular spread (ECS) of nodal disease.
While confirming a clean margin, the presence of pseudo-lobules with fatty change in the adjacent non-cancerous portion confirmed a diagnosis of liver cirrhosis (Fig. 2d, e).
For predicting plant species numbers, the automatic linear modelling procedures again selected six parameters as best predictors: the length of the margin, the presence of trees and/or shrubs, the amount of source habitats in the surroundings, the width of the margin, the nutrient availability and the landscape heterogeneity of the surroundings.
Although this probeset could be used to construct a classifier with a reasonably large margin, the presence of a sample of normal tissue with expression close to the cancer group drastically reduces the specificity of a classifier based upon this probeset.
There are three problems requiring careful consideration with HIFU therapy: the ablation margin, the presence of multiple breast cancers, and necrotic masses remaining in the breast after treatment.
The factors associated with recurrence are the surgical margin, the presence of multifocal or multicentric disease, lesion size and the degree of differentiation of the in-situ change.
Lesions were described in relation to location, size, shape, margins, enhancement, presence of cavitation, calcifications, ground glass component, intratumoural enhanced vessels, pleural effusion, pleural tags, lymphangitis, chest wall/rib involvement and pathological lymph nodes.
