A member asked:
What is bilateral breast calcification with new 8mm asymmetry?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
All imaging results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, your question about asymmetry is not clear. You may wish to restate. Wish you good health!

Breast calcifications are common and vary in appearance from benign to suspicious. If not suspicious they can be monitored annually. The new asymmetry needs to be better clarified, either with additional studies (targeted mammogram, ultrasound, MRI), needle biopsy, or closer follow up (or some combination of those). Chances are good that ultimately everything will be benign.
