Can MRI tell radiated breast tissue from normal tissue?

Has anyone that's had radiation suffered from thicker breast tissue on your mammogram? I just went in for my 6 month mammo since radiation and it stated there was an area that could be tissue but they always call it a "mass", did a sonogram right after but no mass or abnormalities were seen to correlate with the mammo. Having a breast MRI Monday yet again just to make sure. So worried, but I do believe that radiation can cause your tissue to do this. just was wondering if the MRI can tell that the tissue has been radiated because that breast feels totally different after radiatin
