No, you cannot.

Sometimes the mammo misses something.

Sometimes the MRI misses something.

Sometimes the ultrasound misses something.

I know a whole bunch of young women with the YSC (Young Survival
Coalition) who can tell you stories how their cancer showed up on one
scan but not on another.

In addition, MRIs show too much and give many false positives sending
women for biopsies that aren't needed. Many doctors refuse to give them
for possible breast cancer because of this.
