  Densityhttp://hl7.org/fhir/us/breast-radiology/CodeSystem/DensityAbnormalityTypeCSDensity

The density types are referring to the amount of glandular tissue and fibrous connective tissue versus levels of fatty tissue.

  DensityFocalAsymmetryhttp://hl7.org/fhir/us/breast-radiology/CodeSystem/DensityAbnormalityTypeCSDensity focal asymmetry

The density is focal asymmetry on two mammographic views.

  DensityNodularhttp://hl7.org/fhir/us/breast-radiology/CodeSystem/DensityAbnormalityTypeCSDensity nodular

The nodule found on Mammogram is dense.

  DensityTubularhttp://hl7.org/fhir/us/breast-radiology/CodeSystem/DensityAbnormalityTypeCSDensity tubular

The milk ducts have formed a tubular appearing dense structure.

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

Level A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies
System The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
Code The code (used as the code in the resource instance)
Display The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application
Definition An explanation of the meaning of the concept
Comments Additional notes about how to use the code
