Anyone with spiculated mass end up not having cancer?

I just had my ultrasound-guided core biopsy yesterday. The initial ultrasound reading mentioned an irregular edge. However, looking at my report from the procedure done yesterday, it used the term "spiculated" for the edges. Googling shows that's highly suggestive of malignancy. Anyone with positive stories of a spiculated mass that was benign?

Note that this was found on a mammogram as architectural distortion, which led to diagnostic mammogram, ultrasound, then biopsy--it's near the back of my breast, so not something I'd have felt on my own. It said it was mainly isoechoic with a small mildly hypoechoic area and some shadowing. About 0.6 cm. I'm 48, annual mammograms, first callback.

Just looking for some ray of hope as I anxiously await results. Thanks!
