    CentralLucentCentral lucentThese are round or oval calcifications that range
    from under 1 mm to over a centimeter.
    They are the result of fat necrosis, calcified debris
    in ducts, and occasional fibroadenomas.

    X-ray attenuation of the mass is the same as the
    expected attenuation of an equal volume of

    fibroglandular breast tissue.

    FatContainingFat containingThis includes all masses containing fat, such as
    oil cyst, lipoma or galactocele, as well as mixed
    density masses such as hamartoma.
    A fat-containing mass will almost always represent
    a

    benign mass.

    HighDensityHigh densitythe breast tissue may be called dense if you have
    a lot of fibrous or glandular
    tissue and not much fat in the breasts.
    Having dense breast tissue is common.
    Some women have more dense breast tissue than others.

    Valid for the following modalities: MG.
    LowDensityLow densityX-ray attenuation of the mass is less than the expected
    attenuation of an equal volume of
    fibroglandular breast tissue.
    A low density mass may be a group of microcysts.
    If such a finding
    is identified at mammography, it may very well not
    be malignant but appropriately may

    be worked up.

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
