A member asked:

Mammo report no interval changes noted mean finding heterogeneously dense which may obscure small masses birads 2 benign finding why unltrasound ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Report indicates: You should be followed by your doctor , due to dense breast tissue may not be able to see ' small masses ' so need a sonogram to make sure there no ' mass ' Even though the report is good you must go back to your doctor for follow up.
