What Does Dark Shadow In Breast Area In CT Scan Indicate?
Hi my grandma went into hospital due to heart palpitations. She had a ct scan today and they said there is a dark shadow in her breast area. They won't be able to find out what this is until Wednesday due to bank holidays. Please can you advise on what it could be.

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
The information provided by you is very limited to give a complete opinion. I suppose you are speaking of your grand mother having undergone a coronary CT angiography. I wonder if the dark shadow in the breast is relating to any benign tumor like structure or anything to do with the procedure. I request further details so that we can discuss in a better way.
