Identify the lumps by color
When I had a lumpectomy and a sentinel lymph node biopsy the lumps were brown in color, when the doctor removed them. When looking in a mirror they were flesh (normal in color) but looked like orange peel . The lab mixed the histolic and cystolic together which meant the doctor had no lab sample to diagnose with. Only that the lumps were brown in color. I had several ultrasounds and mammograms and an MRI. I am not certain of whether it was cancer or pre cancer. I once saw a chart on the internet that showed the colors and how to identify by that but had to get off in too much a hurry to see what the lumps might have been.

Hi there!
The cancerous or the non-cancerous nature of the tissue cannot be determined based on colour. It would require a histopathology examination for a definite diagnosis.
Hope this information is helpful.

I forgot to mention that I had 2 centimeters of cancer removed from my ovary in 2001. The breast surgery was done in 2009
