Ultrasounds are really good at telling whether a lump is solid or not. If it's not solid, that means it's a cyst and cysts are not cancerous.

The ultrasound gives clues as to whether something is cancerous. Cancer tends to have uneven edges and not oval. The doctor thinks mine is a fibroadenoma probably because it has smooth edges and is oval.
