What Does Nodules In Spleen Indicate?
CT scan showed 2 nodules in the spleen. My doctor did an upper GI today to see how that area looked. He mentioned that the spleen is a very sensitive organ specifically to bleeding so I don't know if that's why he's putting off doing a biopsy of the spleen or what. What type of doctor should I be seeing?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
Your concern and query is appreciated, you have not mentioned the clinical symptoms here, because the spleen lesion need to be correlated with that, it could be benign or malignant, just to differentiate this and for proper diagnosis you can consult the gastroenterologist, hope this information helps.
