Invitation for breast cancer screening, further tests	
	Two radiologists have examined your mammograms and have decided that further tests are needed. For this reason, we ask you to attend further tests.

What are further tests?
About 2–3% of the women who participate in breast cancer screening are called back for further tests. Most of them do not have breast cancer. Further tests include additional mammograms. In addition, a radiologist will usually do an ultrasound examination. If a needle biopsy is needed, your doctor will discuss this with you first. If necessary, a local anaesthetic will be used before a biopsy is taken. The examination will take about an hour in total. 

What will happen after the tests?
The radiologist will explain the results of the additional tests to you immediately. If a needle biopsy is taken, you will receive those results by phone or by letter within two weeks. If a suspicion of breast cancer emerges in these further tests, you will be referred to a hospital for surgery. 

Where are the further tests done??
The further tests are done at Name of the place of screening/hospital. An appointment has been booked for you, and the time is given on the upper right-hand side of this invitation. If the time does not suit you, you can change your appointment by phoning 00 0000 000. These further tests are free of charge/subject to a charge. Outpatient clinic fee € xx..
