BI-RADS 0: Incomplete- Should I be worried?
Just got my mammogram results today and it's BI-RADS Final Assessment Category 0: Incomplete-Need Additional Imaging Evaluation. Kind of worried now! They have me scheduled for a follow-up mammogram for Thursday.
BREAST DENSITY: B-The breasts demonstrate scattered fibroglandular densities.
Left breast: There are calcifications in the upper outer quadrant middle depth for which additional imaging is recommended.
Right breast: There is no suspicious dominant mass, unexplained architectural distortion, or grouped microcalcifications.

It just means exactly what it says, more imaging is needed because this one wasn't clear enough to determine what they saw.
