Is My Husband Suffering From Kidney Cancer Or Does He Have A Septa?

My husband under went a ct scan and follow up US for a kidney cyst on left kidney. Found: 1.5 cm anechoic lesion with a central thin septation suggestive of minimally complicated cyst. Follow up US in one year. Is this concern for kidney cancer since it's not a simple cyst and does have a septa?

we cannot surely rule out cancer. if cyst is complex, better is to get advanced IMAGING , such as MRI abdomen, OR PET CT. these may help to take further action
