RID34371 clustered microcysts

definition

BI-RADS US: a cluster of anechoic fmasses, each <2-3mm in diameter, with thin (0.5mm) intervening septations and no discrete solid component,

comment

if they are nonpalpable, clustered microcysts may be assessed as probably benign, with short-interval follow-up. Causes include fibrocystic changes and apocrine metaplasia.
