Any kind of irregular or jagged projection at the margin is suspcious of malignancy."/> </concept> <concept> <code value="CircumscribedMargin"/> <display value="At least 75%% of the margin is sharply demarcated, with an abrupt transition between the lesion and surrounding tissue."/> </concept> <concept> <code value="IndistinctMargin"/> <display value="No clear demarcation of the entire margin or any portion of it from the surrounding tissue."/> </concept> <concept> <code value="IntraductalExtension"/> <display value="Intraductal tumor extension is a characteristic feature of primary breast carcinoma, and is an important consideration in patients undergoing breast conservative surgery. However, there have been no reports of studies of intraductal extension within the mammary ductal tree."/> </concept> <concept> <code value="IrregularMargin"/> <display value="Circumscribed oval and round masses are usually benign. An irregular shape suggests a greater likelihood of malignancy. The margins can be described as circumscribed, microlobulated, obscured (partially hidden by adjacent tissue), indistinct (ill-defined), or spiculated (characterized by lines radiating from the mass)."/> </concept> <concept> <code value="LobulatedMargin"/> <display value="The margin of the lesion reflects the demarcation of the mass with surrounding tissue. It can be smooth, micro lobulated, irregular or spiculated. Gentle bilobulate or Tri lobulated margins are considered smooth."/> </concept> <concept> <code value="MacrolobulatedMargin"/> <display value="No Definition found."/> </concept> <concept> <code value="MicrolobulatedMargin"/> <display value="A margin characterized by short-cycle undulations."/> </concept> <concept> <code value="NonCircumscribedMargin"/> <display value="No definition found."/> </concept> <concept> <code value="ObscuredMargin"/> <display value="ObscuredMargin"/> </concept> <concept> <code value="SmoothMargin"/> <display value="Smooth: A benign lesion usually has clear and smooth margin, which is well defined with the surrounding breast tissues. ...
