Your bilateral breast MRI with and without contrast showed: 1) no evidence of malignancy in either breast. 2) Incidental benign 1 cm cyst in the right upper outer quadrant. Scattered subcentimeter cysts in both breasts.

Hi,
Probably you are on breast screening protocol. Anyway let me first assure you that benign cyst has almost no chance for malignant conversion so you should not worry. Family history is significant because breast cancer runs in family. You should follow the strict screening protocol so that any abnormality can be picked up early. Take care.
