I’m wondering if there is lumps with bi-rads 3 ? Can I possibly request a mri?

There was some conversation about bi-rads 3 on another discussion and the statement probably benign. That being said, if there is a palpable lump, I would think you should be able to request something more diagnostic.
I can’t tell you what you should do, you and your doctor will be able to decide what is best for you. In my case the lump felt as such to my doctor to want to look further and eventually decided to cut it out and get it to the lab.
Do you have a personal history of breast cancer or family history, this could weigh the equation?
