My mammo result shows palpable abnormality
Circumscribe 3.3 cm oval mass
Birads 4 low suspicion

Is it chance being cancer?
Is circumscribe mass a bad thing?

You have to wait for a biopsy to really know. When are you having a biopsy?

I looked up circumscribed tumors and apparently radiologists have trouble differentiating cancer from more benign lesions.

Hope you get good news!

Did Mayo give you a Birads 4 and state low suspicion?

I was given a Birads 4 with no further clarification.

Your nodule is circumcised which is a good thing. I’m sure your biopsy results will be excellent. When are you scheduled?

I’m sure your biopsy will be negative. Did the radiologist give you any indication what she suspected when you had your mammogram?

You might find this explanation about Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System or BI-RADS from the American Cancer Society helpful.

Denise, have you and your doctor discussion the results of your biopsy yet?
