 IMAGING FINDINGS:
Craniocaudal (CC) and Mediolateral Oblique (MLO) views of the right breast demonstrate an area of architectural distortion medially. Spot compression view confirms persistence of architectural distortion. WHY IT MATTERS:

Standard craniocaudal (CC) and mediolateral oblique views of the right breast demonstrate a subcentimeter mass in the lateral right breast. Spot magnification view of the high density mass shows suspicious microlobulated margins. WHY IT MATTERS:

Standard craniocaudal (CC) and mediolateral oblique views of both breasts demonstrate a grouping of fine pleomorphic calcifications in the subareolar right breast. WHY IT MATTERS:
ACR BI-RADS® Atlas Fifth Edition QUICK REFERENCE  IMAGING FINDINGS:
Axial Maximum Intensity Projection (MIP) image of the breasts demonstrates regional non-mass enhancement occupying the majority of the medial right breast. WHY IT MATTERS:
FURTHER READING: Patterns of Nonmasslike Enhancement at Screening Breast MR Imaging of High-Risk Premenopausal Women (RadioGraphics 2013)  IMAGING FINDINGS:
Axial post-contrast subtraction image demonstrates two round enhancing masses with irregular margins in the right breast. The mass marked by an arrow shows suspicious ring enhancement. WHY IT MATTERS:

Sonographic image demonstrates an irregular hypoechoic mass with angular margins. Microcalcifications are present within the mass. WHY IT MATTERS:
Sonographically Guided Biopsy of Suspicious Microcalcifications of the Breast: A Pilot Study (AJR 2002)  IMAGING FINDINGS:
Standard Craniocaudal (CC) and Mediolateral Oblique (MLO) views of the right breast demonstrate an isodense, oval mass in the lower inner quadrant. The mass has primarily circumscribed margins, but is a new finding compared to prior exams. WHY IT MATTERS:
