Preliminary mammogram results are often available at the time of the test, if the radiologist is available to read the films. If not, the results should be available within a few business days.
Sadly yes.
"Dense breasts" on a mammogram is a normal finding. A "thickness" on mammogram is not a typically used phrase; ask your health care provider to clarify what the results actually say.
"False positive" readings also are possible, and 5% to 10% of mammogram results indicate the need for additional testing, most of which confirm that no cancer is present.
BI-RADS is simply the word used in the categories of mammogram results. BI-RADS 0 means additional imaging is needed. BI-RADS 1 means no evidence of cancer. BI-RADS 5 means likely cancer. There are a range of results in between.
BI-RADS is a scale or system for categorizing mammogram results. Like the Richter scale measures earthquakes, and the Fahrenheit scale measures temperature, BI-RADS is a way of classifying mammogram results so that communication between health care providers is easier.

I am not sure if I understand this question correctly, but this is how I interperate it. "Does deodorant cause a Mammogram not to be correct?" If so, yes, Deodorant gives a false reading on the mammogram. Deodorant looks like calcifications in the axilla ( arm pit area) that is why it is recommended that you do not wear deodorant and powder when you you have breast imaging.
