Possible merge

[edit]

I'm thinking a possible merge with breast cancer might be in order here. There's a section called "Screening" where it might fit. JubalHarshaw 20:14, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Better not to merge, and just refer to this article from breast cancer#Screening. - Rod57 (talk) 12:56, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What approvals

[edit]

information request

[edit]

When you get the report back from an MRI, it's full of jargon that is hard for a lay person to understand like "non-mass linear enhancement" Could this article be beefed up to explain this jargon? For instance, this article has a lexicon list http://radiopaedia.org/articles/breast-mri ; but, unfortunately, fails to define the terms in the lexicon list.
