Do calcifications on mammogram correlate with tumor size after neoadjuvant chemotherapy?
Magnetic resonance imaging correlated well while MMG calcification measurements correlated poorly with tumor size on final pathology. Extent of calcifications on diagnostic mammography may not be accurate in preoperative evaluation of breast cancers after NAC.
We propose that expression and outer segment mislocalization of the disease-linked 5-base-pair deletion mutant ELOVL4 protein alters photoreceptor structure and function, which subsequently results in retinal degeneration, and suggest three possible mechanisms by which mutant ELOVL4 may induce retinal degeneration in STGD3.
