Is BI RADS 5 Always Cancer?

By Kimberly Stephenson


What is a BI RADS score?

After a mammogram, the answers to questions like: “Did anything look abnormal?” and “How serious is the abnormality that was found?”, help radiologists and physicians to determine your BI RADS score. Your BI RADS score is an acronym for ‘Breast Imaging Reporting and Database System’. The score ranks the findings from mammogram screenings into a small number of well-defined categories.
