Hi, can any nurse or brest professional explain what a grade 4 tissue result means with level D density throughout..

I've looked on Google which has just scared me more !!

All I've been told is that it's very concerning for cancer & have been booked in with a breast sugeon to discuss my last biopsy results taken one week ago.

Help & advise please as I'm scared to death very worried. My sppointment is tomorrow & I don't know enough. What do I ask?

  • Hi and thank you for your post.

    I am sorry to hear about your situation and appreciate how worrying this can be.

    It's important to note that Cancer Research UK primarily funds research and clinical trials, so we cannot provide a medical opinion or read pathology reports.

    The MAYO clinic and Prevent Breast Cancer both have information about the density of breasts which you may find helpful.

    Breast Cancer Now has questions you can ask if the results show cancer is present.

    I really hope you know more soon and that everything will be okay for you.

    Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Kind regards,

    Tina
