I have attached the report. No lump is present and no mass was found
My wife is 44, 2 children, age 7 and 11. She has a mammogram every year but this was her first 3D one. She has dense breasts. They did not have the prescription for her joint ultrasound so they could not give it to her
It was her annual mammogram

Brief Answer:
Go for additional studies as advised ...
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your feedback an the reports that you have posted.
Since there is no definite lump or so, there is nothing to worry at the moment. There is dense breast tissues.
Go for additional tests like ultrasonography and MRI of the breast to be sure about it. If this too is not showing any mass or so, and if there is no lump palpable too, stop worrying please.
