What Does Lump In The Liver In CT Scan Indicate?

Was at the gastroenterologist yesterday and by chance a CT scan showed a lump in my liver. I was not expecting this, as that was not what I was being treated for. It is 1/2 AND HE SAID TO WAIT 3 MONTHS AND WE WOULD DO ANOTHER SCAN to see if it grows. Should I be worried and see another doctor?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Accidental lump in the liver is common. You may some benign cyst or hemangioma. Wait for a month. GO for ultrasound and if size is increasing then you should go for ultrasound guided liver biopsy to search the cause of lump. Then you should take treatment accordingly.

Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/Drsanghvihardik, I will be happy to answer you.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
