Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic
Homogenous means that the areas examined looked similiar, there were no areas that appeared different and abnormal.
There may be some suggestion of infiltration of the liver mostly likely by fat.
No focal lesions- no masses or tumors
No diffuse lesions- no widespread masses seen
I hope this helps
