This means just as the report states ... there is a mass in your left breast that is a little less than 1/2 inch X 1/4 inch in size. Any finding within the breast tissue might possibly be cancerous ... the only way to determine this is some form of biopsy which has been recommended in your case. I can't tell you what percentage of findings such as this would be cancerous ... Some are and some aren't. There are several things it could be besides cancer.   Regards ....
