This means that the breast has too much glandular and ductile tissues for the ultrasound to be an effective tool in diagnosing cancer which has the same density as these tissues. The result may be a missed diagnosis.

Supersizeme hit this one on the mark. You don't say whether you were told this or this was on a report that your doctor got back after your ultrasound. Usually women with dense breast tissue can't rely on mammograms alone, ultrasound is often ordered to help distinquish what the radiologist is looking at. Was an MRI of the breasts ordered? This may be another option for you if they have determined that the ultrasound was not helpful. Was this part of a routine screening or did you find something that concerned you during a self breast exam? Good luck to you on this and keep us informed.
