My recent mammogram and ultrasound showed benign bilateral axillary lymph nodes noted. What does this mean?

It means that your lymph nodes were seen on some of your films. We have many lymph nodes throughout our bodies including the axillary area. Benign means that they are normal in appearance. It's a GOOD thing.
