My daughter is 30yrs old, she went for her 6 mos mamo due to strong fam History, mamo was unimpressive, she has very dense breasts, and due to History also she had an MRI done.

MRI results: Within the retroareolar left breast extending from the nipple-areolar posteriorly approx 4.0cm, linear enhancement with two associated sites of focal heterogeneous non mass enhancement are noted. The focal enhancement measures 0.5 and 0.3 cm. This represents an interval MRI change.

MRI guided biopsy will be done tomorrow very early.

Could someone explain, are there any indications of it being not benign maybe? The retroareolar seems to be a difficult spot to get to? Would that be a more painful type of biopsy? Thank you for your help.

    Hi there momallthetime. The fact that' it's a "non mass" enhancement seems like a good thing, but I'm no expert. Just wanted to wish you and your daughter the best of luck. Odds of cancer at her age are very low.
