Is it normal to have an MRI after being diagnosed with stage 1 bc?

  • Hi Burgers  and welcome to the forum.  It may be that the area is not very clear on the mammogram hence they have ordered the MRI to check the area and this will be more precise for them and you.

    There are so many variables. Mine, 20mm lobular in dense breast, hadn’t shown on mammogram, looked like two lesions on ultrasound, so MRI with contrast was necessary to see it as well as possible.

Help us do whatever it takes, because we’ve never been needed more.
