About breast configuration
"Breast composition" will be listed in the results of those who have undergone mammography for breast cancer screening.
Breast composition is divided into XNUMX categories according to the ratio of fat and mammary glands in the breast in mammography, and indicates the degree of risk of lesions being hidden by normal mammary glands.
Breasts with a lot of mammary glands (high density) change with age to breasts with a lot of fat.
Breast composition serves as a guideline for examination selection for breast cancer screening.
Here are mammography images for each breast configuration.
On a mammogram, the mammary glands appear white and fat appears black.Lumps also appear white, so it is difficult to see lumps in highly dense or non-uniformly dense breasts.Therefore, it may be easier to find a lump in the mammary gland by undergoing an ultrasound examination at the same time as a mammogram.
Calcification, which is an early symptom of breast cancer, can be seen in any breast, so mammography is important even in breasts with many glands.
Test selection recommended by our health checkup center
The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare recommends people over the age of 40 to have a mammogram once every two years.
In addition, we recommend annual ultrasound examinations for all patients.It is recommended to have mammography and ultrasound at the same time, especially for those with dense or non-uniform dense breasts.
