I know that this probably means "the 9th and 10th radii", and probably has something to do with horizontal subdivisions of the breast, but I can't find any reference to confirm this.

The location of the finding is described in terms of the clinical orientation used in physical xamination. In this scheme, the breast is viewed as the face of a clock as the patient faces the examiner. The location is expressed at the position of the hour hand, such that straight up is 12:00, down is 6:00. The outer margin of the right breast is 9:00, the outer margin of the left breast is 3:00 and so on. The use of quadrants is an option. Use of both quadrant and clockface is encouraged. The finding is then localized in the anterior, middle, or posterior thirds of the breast. Immediately below the nipple is designated subareolar. It may be helpful to report how many centimeters the finding is from the nipple.
