Image example of the four descriptive breast density categories for mammography defined by the fifth edition of the ACR BI-RADS atlas: ACR-A = the breasts are almost entirely fatty; ACR-B = there are scattered areas of fibroglandular density; ACR-C = the breasts are heterogeneously dense, which may obscure small masses; and ACR-D = the breasts are extremely dense, which lowers the sensitivity of mammography.
