During a diagnostic mammogram, additional imaging views may be taken to provide a more detailed examination of a specific area of concern identified in a previous screening mammogram. This may involve magnification views or specialized techniques such as spot compression or breast ultrasound to further evaluate any abnormalities detected. In some cases, a breast MRI may also be recommended for further assessment.
