– Finding not seen in contralateral breast?
2. Compare with prior images
– New microcalcifications? Magnify
– New mass? Spot compression, rolled views, +/- DBT
– New architectural distortion? DBT
3. Evaluate skin, nipples, axillae
– Skin thickening (not explained by RT) or new nipple eversion? Consider inflammatory carcinoma
– New unilateral grossly enlarged lymph node(s)? Consider metastatic breast cancer, lymphoma
