Should I be concerned for the increased density in the right breast diagnosed through Mammogram?
Patient: I had a mammogram 2 days ago, and they called and want me to come back for additional views, because I have an area of increased density in my right breast not noted on previous mammograms, I am 53 , and have had mammograms every year since I was 40. What would this mean? And should I be concerned? Doctor: Hi and welcome to HCM, thanks for the query.Well, you don't have to be concerned but you need to do ultrasound and biopsy to rule out malignancy. It can be any benign breats lesion but also it can be tumor in some cases. so do further tests so that you can sleep well.Wish you good health.Regards
