Figure 8b.

(a, b) MLO full-field digital mammogram (a) shows dense calcifications, with associated shadowing artifacts (arrows in b) on the MLO synthetic mammogram (b). Shadowing artifact may occur on synthesized mammograms and can jeopardize the evaluation of adjacent lesions. (c) MLO DBT image shows zipper artifacts (arrows), which are out-of-plane image repetitions that may also be seen with dense calcifications.
