What Causes Mass On The Liver?
My urologist has detected a mass on my liver as a result of testings to see if prostate cancer had returned. I have been referred to a oncologist and a radiologist. My GP thinks it is cancer. Even checked my eyes for jaundice. How would he determine that without a biopsy.

Hi, i do care for your concern.
prostate cancer usually metastasize, to the liver.

its highly recommended to consult radiologist to confirm the diagnosis, and get treated accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
