Question:
"The patient had an MRI and was diagnosed with invasive lobular carcinoma of the right breast. A week later, the patient was seen in mammography for evaluation of an area of non-mass enhancement in the right breast as well as a mass in the left breast seen on recent outside MRI. In mammography, she had a bilateral diagnostic mammogram and a bilateral breast ultrasound. On the same day, the patient had an ultrasound-guided core biopsy of the right breast and an ultrasound-guided FNA with micromarker placement on the left breast."
