Fibroadenosis, also known as fibrocystic breast disease, is a benign growth abnormality of the breast. To diagnose fibroadenomas, a healthcare provider may perform several tests, including:
1. A mammogram (breast x-ray)
2. An ultrasound scan (using sound waves to produce an image)
3. A core biopsy (using a hollow needle to take a sample of breast tissue to be looked at under a microscope)
4. A fine needle aspiration (FNA) (using a fine needle and syringe to take a sample of cells to be looked at under a microscope)
