What Does Solid Leasions In The Right Lobe Of Liver Indicate?

I had mildly elevated alt and ast. Dr. Ordered ultrasound of liver. Results said normal liver size, mildly echogenic. Three solid appearing lesions in right lobe, largest is 2.5x2.5cm. Hemangiomas cannot be excluded however don't meet us criteria. What does this mean? Pancreas is normal and gallbladder is normal.

hi.

noted history of liver lesions on ultrasound report. are you experiencing any abdominal nor systemic symptoms (fever, weight loss, jaundice)? further investigation must be done to evaluate the lesions further. it is best if you consult with a doctor first, preferably a gastroenterologist or a general surgeon, for a thorough physical examination and clinical evaluation. diagnostics (such as tissue diagnosis/biopsy, liver function tests, chest x-ray, etc.) and management (medical and/or surgical if indications are found) will be directed accordingly. benign vs malignant lesions of the liver must be ruled-out.

hope this helps.

good day!!
