1st mammogram Sept 2019 & had probably benign microcalcifications.6 months follow up was two days ago.Radiologist Dr.said there's been a few new ones and I need biopsy.Does an increase in the number of microcalcifications often mean cancer?

A member asked:

One year ago mammogram and ultrasound identified a cluster of microcysts with a few calcifications no internal vascularity. Repeated imaging at six months no change. It was assigned BI-RADS 3. Radiologist said less concerned now. Is this right?

A member asked:

Should I be seeking a second opinion when the radiologist stated an area on my baseline breast scan to be within normal tissue after a repeat mammogram and ultrasound? He would like to see me again in 6 months to compare scans.
