Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.
MR report says that there is a vascular lesion of the vertebral body (Hemangioma).
Most vertebral hemangiomas are noted incidentally on spinal imaging studies and when there are no symptoms related to them, they don't need treatment.
Hemangiomas are benign tumors and grow very slowly.
Care must be taken when they affect vertebral column stability or cause vertebral fractures. Periodic imaging of spine is necessary to evaluate growth rate and stability. ( spine MRI and spine radiography).
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
