20. Do not panic
Abnormal Results
What if they tell me that my mammogram was abnormal?
A-If your mammogram is abnormal, do not panic. An abnormal
mammogram does not always mean that there is cancer.
B-If your screening mammogram shows an abnormality, you
will need to have additional tests to be able to tell whether or
not the abnormality is cancer.
21. Your doctor may order some of
these tests:
DIAGNOSTIC MAMMOGRAM
An additional mammogram that focuses on a
specific area of the breast.
22. Your doctor may order some of
these tests:
ULTRASOUND
An imaging test that uses sound waves to create a
picture of your breast. The pictures may show
whether a lump is solid or filled with fluid. A cyst will
be fluid-filled and is not cancer. A solid mass may
be cancer.
23. Your doctor may order some of
these tests:
MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING (MRI)
A test that uses a powerful magnet linked to a
computer that creates detailed pictures of the
breast.
BIOPSY
A test in which fluid or tissue is removed from your
breast to help find out if there is cancer
24.
25. What did my biopsy or
needle aspiration show
What stage of breast
cancer am I in?
What kind of breast cancer do I
have?
What size is the tumor?
9 Important Question to Ask
Your Doctor
26. What are my treatment
options?
How much time do I have to make
decisions about my treatment
choices
Has the cancer spread to my lymph nodes or other
parts of my body (metastasized)
What types of treatment
would you recommend?
What is my chance for
recovery (prognosis)?
