Mammogram question - s/l pattern form breast sm
Tue Sep 23, 2003 12:27

Ms. XX has a normal physical examination. She does have increased symmetrical density between her right and her left upper outer quadrants. Her mammograms were reviewed with her. She does have ****pattern form breast*** which she understands will make diagnosis somewhat more difficult.

This s/l pattern form or pattern for breast. The patient is in for increased nodularity in one of her breasts and breast cancer risk assessment.

This is a new doctor for me. He is pretty easy but goes kind of quickly through this part. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

also patterned ones (??)
I often see smooth round implants, so perhaps there are (nm)
