Benign findings. Diagnosis Multiple, bilateral circumscribed masses. Discussion • Multiple, bilateral masses are defined as at least three masses in total with at least one in each breast. 7% of screening mammo­ grams. • Margins must be 75% circumscribed and the remainder can be obscured. • No mass can have spiculated margins. • Excludes palpable masses and those with suspicious calcifications. 14%. • Ultrasound is indicated if any mass is palpable, rapidly growing, or has an otherwise suspicious appearance.
