57-year-old female with benign granular-cell tumor in right breast.A. Computed radiography mammogram, right mediolateral oblique (MLO) view, Factors 28 kVp, 104 mAs. B. Right craniocaudal (CC) view, Factors 30 kVp,66 mAs. These show a dense, well-circumscribed subareolar mass with overlying skin thickening and adjacent prominent duct with calcification.

Diagnostic mammography (mediolateral oblique and craniocaudal views) demonstrated a dense, well-defined mass lesion in the upper and lower outer quadrant of the subareolar region (Figs. 2A, B).
57-year-old female with benign granular-cell tumor in right breast.A. High-resolution sonography (HRS) over the lesion shows well-defined mixed echoic mass with posterior acoustic enhancement measuring 2.4 x 1.6 cm. B. HRS with color Doppler shows no increased color flow. The adjacent duct in the inferomedial aspect is enlarged and shows similar echogenic material within it. Technique: Linear 5-12 MHz transducer (frequency of 12 MHz) performed on a GE Voluson P8 ultrasound machine.
