It means that there is nothing new or different on this Mammogram than was seen on your previous examination. Intramammary lymph nodes are not usually cause for concern, especially if they are stable which evidently yours is on this recent exam. I would suggest that you have your prescribing Physician explain in detail both reports which of course I feel should always be done each time we have any type of imagery.   Regards ....
