A member asked:

If a dignastic mamm. says an irregular focal asymmetric density found in rb 11:00. does this have a chance of being cancer. mother had b. cancer.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

possible: It could be but i would speak with the radiologist and see if they think its concerning. If its suspicious to them then they can perform a needle biopsy. Doesn't really sound like a true mass based on what you have posted. Talk with your doctor.
