CAN THIS BE A NON PROBLEMATIC SITUATION.

It matters slightly whether the report being quoted is from a mammogram or an ultrasound. In any case, since it implies someone has ordered a test and that a test has been done, the best source of info is from the doctor who ordered the test. Things in the breast that are described as well-circumscribed are less likely to be cancer than those described in other ways. However, any abnormality needs a plan to determine what's going on, and that plan has to be worked out between the woman and her doctors.
