Fibroglandular parenchyma is the combination of fibrous and glandular tissue found in the breast. This tissue is responsible for producing and transporting milk in breastfeeding women. Changes in fibroglandular tissue density can affect mammography results and breast cancer risk assessment.
Having heterogeneously dense fibroandular tissue is a cancer cell does that mean i have breast cancer already?
Homogeneous parenchyma in the breast refers to the tissue having a uniform density and appearance on imaging, typically indicating a consistent distribution of fibroglandular tissue. This is often considered a normal finding and indicates no significant abnormalities or masses within the breast tissue.
Breast parenchymal density refers to the prevalence of fibroglandular tissue in the breast as it appears on a mammogram. Heterogeneous means 'not the same'
Heterogeneously dense fibroglandular tissue refers to breast tissue that has a mixture of glandular and fibrous connective tissue, which can make mammogram images more challenging to interpret. This type of tissue composition may slightly increase the risk of developing breast cancer and can also make it harder to detect abnormalities on mammograms.
Glandular parenchyma in the breasts refers to the pattern of the breast tissue. If the parenchyma is more complex and dense, a person has a higher risk of breast cancer.
Parenchyma refers to the bulk of an organ. Thus, the liver parenchyma is the bulk of the liver (not the capsule around it, or the blood vessels that go through it). The brain parenchyma is the bulk of the brain (not the meninges or the spinal cord or optic nerves).
Parenchyma is the bulk of the organ, so uterine parenchyma means the uterine walls.

What is moderate breast parenchyma?
The lachrymal parenchyma is the bulk of the tear gland.
The parenchyma are the functional parts of an organ in the body.
