Same for me Andi - the mammo and ultrasound missed my 2 tumours. - I got the all clear to have my breast reduction 3 months after these imagings, my plastic surgeon saw one tumour and cut it out separately- went in for a breast reduction, came out with breast cancer. My onc. and breast surgeon sent me for a breast MRI before my mast., the breast MRI found the second, 1 cm. tumour.

all the best
