Hello,

That means your breast tissue is very bulky and they can not make an inference on this mammogram/ultrasound. However, no significant lesion or lumps are detected. A person with granular or heavy breast needs MR mammogram for complete assessment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
