Health insurance coverage influences breast cancer screening behavior. In one case, a 61-year-old uninsured woman with no known previous screening for breast cancer presented for screening mammography. (A) A craniocaudal two-dimensional synthetic mammogram of the right breast shows an irregular mass in the medial breast with pleomorphic calcifications extending posteriorly. (B) A craniocaudal magnified mammogram more clearly shows the irregular mass and pleomorphic calcifications in the medial breast. (C) An anti-radial ultrasound image of the right breast shows an irregular hypoechoic mass with indistinct margins and posterior acoustic shadowing at the 3 o'clock position, approximately 4 cm from the nipple. (D) An axial postcontrast maximum intensity projection (MIP) subtracted MR image shows a large enhancing mass in the anterior and medial right breast with skin thickening and enhancement and several morphologically abnormal right axillary lymph nodes. (E) An axial postcontrast MIP subtracted MR image with color mapping shows the rapidly enhancing mass with washout kinetic enhancement in the anterior and medial right breast, with skin thickening and enhancement and several morphologically abnormal right axillary lymph nodes. Histopathologic biopsy results demonstrated invasive mammary carcinoma with metastatic disease in a right axillary lymph node. Image courtesy of Peter Abraham, MD, et al.
