Fibroadenoma that didn’t show on ultrasound

Anxietymama

Hello,

I’m high risk so I get regular MRI’s. On my last one they found a new mass, that they then tried to see on an ultrasound, but it didn’t show there.

I had it biopsied but I’m very worried and trying to think of all the benign things it could potentially be to reassure mysel. I’m wondering if anyone has ever had a fibroadenoma that didnt show up on ultrasound?

AnxietyMama - it's a good idea to stick to one thread so everyone can follow the answers & not start two differen threads.

Lots of things show on imaging that turn out benign.

As MinusTwo has said, there are many other benign masses that can come from testing.
