The term I think you are looking for is "well circumscribed hypo-echoic nodule."
The phrase well circumscribed means that the item looked at has well defined edges. When talking about nodules or tumors in the body, it is generally a good thing.
The phrase hypo-echoic means that it did not reflect a lot of waves back to the sensor.
