There are many areas of cancer throughout the liver. The cancer came from some other body part. I'm sorry for your trouble.
What does this mean........innumerable multiple hypodence lesions involving both lobes of the liver measuring 2 to 5 mm. Nodularity of the liver contour .there is mild hepatomegaly
The treatment for liver lesions depends on whether or not the lesions are malignant or benign. Surgical intervention is recommended for malignant liver lesions.
Symptoms of liver lesions include pain and bleeding. Another common symptom is a feeling of fullness. Nausea is also an early warning sign of lesions in the liver.
they are hypodense typically though can have a varied appearance. They can be diagnosed definitvely with a contrast enhacned CT or MR due to a characteristic enhancement pattern. They are a benign lesion.
Liver lesions can be caused by a variety of conditions, including cancer, hemangiomas (benign blood vessel tumors), hepatic adenomas, or cysts. Other causes include fatty liver disease, infections such as hepatitis, or inflammatory conditions like autoimmune hepatitis. It is important to identify the specific cause of liver lesions to determine the appropriate treatment.
Hypoattenuating liver lesions are areas within the liver that appear darker on imaging studies, such as CT scans, compared to the surrounding liver tissue. This decreased attenuation typically indicates the presence of fluid or fat, and these lesions can be benign, like hepatic cysts or focal nodular hyperplasia, or malignant, such as liver tumors. Further evaluation, including additional imaging or biopsy, may be necessary to determine the nature of these lesions.
brain, bones, adrenals, liver
Depends on the form. If cancer has spread, it is said to have metastasized. The spreading itself is called metastasis. "Lung carcinoma with metastasis to the liver."
Benign
A test carried out for testing liver metastasis. is the test required in case of confirmed metastates?
A hypodense liver mass is an area of the liver that shows up as a different color on ultrasound or CT scan than the liver itself. It is not a diagnosis, but only an observation of the picture the radiologist took. It's often found "accidentally" while looking for something else, and doesn't need treatment but may need a follow-up picture in a few months. Your health care provider will combine this finding with the ohter information gathered from the history, physical, and lab tests to determine what this finding means for you.
Less liver specific than others....obstructions, hepatitis.... Paget's disease, osteosarcoma, bone metastasis, pregnancy.....
