[BI-RADS] Mammo: The parenchyma is distorted with no definite mass visible. As an associated feature, architectural distortion may be used in conjunction with another finding to indicate that the parenchyma is distorted or retracted adjacent to the finding. MR: This includes focal retraction and distortion of the parenchyma with no definite mass visible. As an associated feature, may be used in conjunction with another finding to indicate distortion or retraction of parenchyma adjacent to the other finding.
