When Maria Connor noticed a lump on her breast, she decided to get it checked out. She arrived at the hospital with Marcus Dent for her appointment and the unnamed Consultant confirmed the presence of a lump and told Maria that she would need to take an ultrasound scan and cell exam. However, the results were inconclusive and the consultant explained that she would need a core biopsy for a closer examination. Several days later, the consultant told Maria that the biopsy revealed that the tissue wasn't cancerous, much to her relief.
