A shadow on a mammogram can indicate a potential abnormality, such as a mass or density that may require further investigation. It could represent benign conditions like cysts or fibrocystic changes, but it can also suggest the presence of Breast cancer. Radiologists typically assess the characteristics of the shadow and may recommend additional imaging or a biopsy for a definitive diagnosis. It's important for patients to discuss any findings with their healthcare provider for appropriate follow-up.
