French Mammography and Breast Imaging Translation
Certified French to English Translation of Mammography and Breast Imaging Reports
If you need a French mammography and breast imaging translation for use in the UK, you need more than a general French translator. Breast imaging reports contain highly specialised medical and radiological terminology, detailed descriptions of lesions and abnormalities, precise measurements, imaging classifications and clinical recommendations.
At French Medical Translators, I provide accurate French-to-English translations of mammography reports and other breast imaging documentation for patients, GPs, consultants, hospitals, specialist clinics, solicitors, insurers and other organisations.
As a Chartered Linguist and specialist French medical translator, I understand the importance of translating medical imaging documentation accurately and consistently.
Every measurement, anatomical reference, radiological finding and clinical conclusion needs to be conveyed clearly without changing the meaning of the original French report.
Whether you have a French mammogram report, breast ultrasound report, breast MRI report or a complete set of breast cancer imaging records, I can provide a professional English translation suitable for use in the UK.

Specialist French Mammography Report Translation
Mammography reports can contain complex terminology relating to breast density, masses, microcalcifications, asymmetries, architectural distortion and lymph nodes. They may also contain classifications such as ACR or BI-RADS, together with recommendations for additional imaging, follow-up or biopsy.
These details need to be translated with particular care.
A French radiology report might describe the precise location and dimensions of a breast lesion, its appearance and characteristics, associated calcifications or other abnormalities, and whether further investigation is recommended. A translation that is linguistically understandable but medically imprecise may fail to communicate important information to the healthcare professional reviewing it.
My French mammography report translation service is designed to ensure that the original medical meaning is retained throughout the English translation.
French Breast Imaging Translation for the NHS
If you have undergone breast imaging in France and are now receiving treatment or investigation in the UK, you may need your French medical documentation translated for your GP, NHS hospital, breast clinic, consultant or specialist.
I provide French breast imaging translations for NHS use, including mammography, breast ultrasound and breast MRI reports.
The translated report can help UK healthcare professionals understand the findings of previous investigations and incorporate them into your medical history. This can be particularly important when you are undergoing further investigation, seeking a second opinion or continuing treatment in the UK following investigations carried out in France.
Where certification is required, I can provide a certified French-to-English medical translation with the appropriate certification documentation.
French Breast Ultrasound Report Translation
Breast ultrasound is frequently performed alongside mammography, particularly when further investigation of a finding is required.
French breast ultrasound reports may contain detailed descriptions of the size, shape, margins and location of a lesion, together with information about its echogenicity, vascularity and relationship to surrounding structures. Reports may also document findings in the axillary region or recommend further investigation such as biopsy.
I can translate French breast ultrasound reports into English, ensuring that measurements, anatomical locations, radiological terminology and conclusions are accurately reproduced.
Where you have several reports relating to the same examination, such as a mammogram followed by an ultrasound, I can translate the documentation together to ensure consistent terminology throughout.
French Breast MRI Translation
Breast MRI reports are among the most technically demanding forms of medical imaging documentation to translate.
A French breast MRI report may contain terminology relating to contrast enhancement, enhancement kinetics, diffusion, lesion morphology, background parenchymal enhancement and the precise anatomical location of an abnormality. Reports can also contain measurements and classifications that are important when determining the next stage of investigation or treatment.
My French breast MRI translation service provides accurate French-to-English translation of these specialist reports while preserving the medical meaning of the original.
I can also translate breast MRI reports alongside mammography, ultrasound, biopsy and pathology documentation, helping to maintain consistent terminology across the complete set of medical records.
Translating ACR and BI-RADS Classifications
Breast imaging reports may use recognised classification systems to communicate the radiologist's assessment of an imaging finding.
French reports commonly refer to ACR classifications, while English-language breast imaging documentation may use BI-RADS terminology. These classifications need to be handled carefully and should not simply be translated word-for-word without considering the context in which they appear.
I take particular care with radiological classifications, ensuring that the original classification and its significance within the report are accurately represented in English.
Measurements and anatomical descriptions are treated with the same level of precision. For example, if a report states that a lesion measures 17 × 16 mm and identifies its precise position in relation to the nipple, those details must remain exactly consistent in the translation.

Why Choose a Specialist French Medical Translator?
Medical imaging translation is not simply a matter of translating French words into English. A professional translator needs to understand the medical context in which those words are being used.
At French Medical Translators, I specialise in French-to-English medical translation, with extensive experience translating complex medical records and specialist imaging documentation.
Particular attention is paid to:
-
Medical terminology – using appropriate English radiological and clinical terminology.
-
Anatomical accuracy – ensuring that locations and structures are translated precisely.
-
Measurements – preserving lesion dimensions, distances and other numerical information accurately.
-
Radiological terminology – correctly translating descriptions of masses, calcifications, enhancement and other imaging findings.
-
Classifications – carefully handling ACR, BI-RADS and other classification systems.
-
Abbreviations – interpreting French medical abbreviations according to their clinical context.
-
Clinical conclusions – accurately translating the radiologist's conclusion and recommendations.
-
Formatting – retaining the structure and presentation of the original report where appropriate.
My translations are completed by a human specialist rather than relying on automated machine translation. This is particularly important for highly technical medical documents where terminology can depend heavily on context.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can you translate a French mammography report into English?
Yes. I provide specialist French-to-English translations of mammography reports for patients, healthcare professionals, hospitals, consultants and other organisations. French mammography reports can contain highly specialised terminology relating to breast density, masses, microcalcifications, architectural distortion and imaging classifications, so specialist medical translation is important. I can also translate accompanying breast ultrasound, MRI, biopsy and pathology reports to ensure terminology remains consistent.
Can you translate a French breast MRI report?
Yes. I can translate French breast MRI reports into accurate English, including reports containing technical terminology relating to contrast enhancement, diffusion, lesion morphology, enhancement kinetics and anatomical location. Breast MRI reports can be particularly complex because they combine technical imaging information with detailed clinical interpretation. If the MRI forms part of a wider breast cancer investigation, I can also translate the associated mammography, ultrasound, biopsy or pathology documentation.
Do you translate French breast ultrasound reports?
Yes. French breast ultrasound reports can be translated into English for use by UK GPs, consultants, hospitals and specialist breast clinics. I carefully translate descriptions of lesions, their measurements, location and characteristics, together with any associated lymph node findings or recommendations for further investigation. If the ultrasound was performed alongside a mammogram, I can translate both reports together for greater consistency.
Can you provide a certified French mammography translation for the NHS?
Yes. I can provide certified French-to-English translations of mammography and other breast imaging reports where certification is required. As a Chartered Linguist and member of the Chartered Institute of Linguists, I provide professional certified translations for official use in the UK. If you have been specifically asked by an NHS hospital, consultant or other organisation to provide a certified translation, tell me when requesting your quotation so that I can provide the appropriate service.
Do you translate ACR and BI-RADS classifications?
Yes. ACR and BI-RADS classifications require particular care because they communicate important information about breast imaging findings and recommendations. I preserve the classification accurately while translating the surrounding medical terminology into appropriate English. I do not simply replace individual words mechanically, but consider how the classification is being used within the complete radiology report.
Can you translate a French mammogram urgently?
I can accommodate urgent French mammography and breast imaging translations where my availability allows. Medical imaging reports are sometimes needed quickly because a patient has an upcoming consultation or further investigation in the UK. When you contact me, tell me your required deadline and I will confirm whether I can meet it before you place your order.
How much does French mammography translation cost?
The cost depends on factors such as the length and complexity of the report, its formatting and whether certification or urgent delivery is required. A straightforward mammography report may be relatively short, while a complete set of mammography, ultrasound, MRI and biopsy documentation will naturally require more work. The easiest way to obtain an accurate price is to send me a copy of the document for a free, no-obligation quotation.
