The CT scan showed two things, that were not on the original CT request form without signs or symptoms usually. One is an area of low density in your liver that can be due to a number of things, but usually due to fatty liver where alcohol or general fats are deposited in your liver or cysts. To rule out more serious causes, your physician can order specific blood tests to assess liver function and biochemistry and possibly order a biopsy of the area if needed. Secondly is a cyst on the left side of the uterus.

A liver scan is a diagnostic procedure to evaluate the liver for suspected disease. A radioactive substance which concentrates in the liver is injected intravenously and the image of its distribution in the body is analyzed to diagnose abnormalities.

A specialized liver scan used to assess blood flow is frequently used. It may be referred to as a radionuclide blood pool or volume study, a labeled red cell scintigram, or some combination of these terms. This test is called a liver-spleen scan
An abnormal liver scan may result from a mass. Depending on the radioisotope and technique used, the scan may identify particular types of tumors or certain cancers.
