Action required.: The next step is to get together with your physician, who ordered the study, to discuss these findings. This is a very non-specific finding that means that you have a mass which needs to be further looked at by either more detailed imaging (MRI or CT scan), or it needs a biopsy so the tissue can be looked at in more detail. They can be benign, but also might be malignant.
