What Can Cause A 9 Mm Bony Lesion On Left Side Of The Knee?

What can cause a 9 mm bony lesion on left side of left knee? My doctor is sending me for a bone scan. She hasn t said anything regarding the phrase on the MRI results neoplasm . As a lay person, I see that as, Hmmm, lets see if it s a tumor . Because she isn t addressing this, I feel I should get a doctor who is willing to talk straight and just tell me what they are looking for.
