    AsymmetryAsymmetryBreast asymmetry refers to when one breast is a different
    size or shape than the
    other.


    Valid for the following modalities: MG.
    AsymmetryFocalAsymmetry focalFocal asymmetry is visible as a confined asymmetry
    with a similar shape on two views
    but does not fit the criteria of a mass: that is,
    it lacks convex outer borders and
    conspicuity.
    In contrast to global asymmetry, it occupies a volume
    of less than one quadrant of
    the breast and is of more concern.
    The frequency of finding focal asymmetry at screening
    mammography is less than 1%.

    Valid for the following modalities: MG.
    AsymmetryGlobalAsymmetry globalGlobal asymmetry in breast tissue is a form of breast
    asymmetry where at least one
    quadrant of a breast has a larger amount of fibroglandular
    density than the corresponding
    area in the contralateral breast.


    Valid for the following modalities: MG.
    DevelopingAsymmetryDeveloping AsymmetryA developing asymmetry is a focal asymmetry that
    is new or increased in conspicuity
    compared with the previous mammogram.
    It is challenging to evaluate, as it often looks
    similar to fibroglandular tissue
    at mammography.
    A developing asymmetry should be viewed with suspicion
    because it is an uncommon
    manifestation of breast cancer.

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

Level A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies
Source The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
Code The code (used as the code in the resource instance)
Display The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application
