Re: Lancet article: "MRI of little benefit to Most women with breast cancer
Neither a diagnostic mammogram or a sonogram showed my tumors. Thank goodness the doctor insisted on a biopsy given the abnormal calcifications. After a positive biopsy, an MRI finally showed 3 small tumors, all under 1cm. It confirmed a lumpectomy wasn't an option. Every single day I am grateful to my HR director for approving my MRI.
