A member asked:
I have a lump about 1.5 cm in diameter. what is the likelihood of it being breast cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Size doesn't matter,: The lump should be checked by your physician. Ultrasounds, mammograms, and mri's can help to define if it's benign or cancer. A sample of the lump to examine under the microscope would give the final answer.
