How add circle Shape in Google maps custom icon?

Related question: JS Maps v3: custom marker with user profile picture

function CustomMarker(latlng, map, imageSrc) {
this.latlng_ = latlng;
this.imageSrc = imageSrc;
// Once the LatLng and text are set, add the overlay to the map. This will
// trigger a call to panes_changed which should in turn call draw.
this.setMap(map);
