Re: Should I be worried? Feeling lost and scared again.

So does anyone know if an MRI can differentiate between benign calcification and a malignant calcification?
I have had a double mastectomy with diep flap reconstructive surgery so not sure how reliable any of these tests are in that situation.

TIA!!
