What Does The Following Ultrasound Report Indicate?

An ultra sound showed fluid and gas in my gallbladder but no stones. It also showed a cost on the liver node. I scheduled an appointment with a gastroenterologist for Monday morning. Is that timing ok Oslo should I go someplace sooner? YYYY@YYYY

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
In most cases these spots are benign growths such as cysts or hemangiomas. Hemangioma is very small and this cant cause such symptoms unless larger than 10cm. He should do MRI scn or liver biopsy to find what type of lesion it is. Less common this may be malignant issues such as hepatocellular carcinoma . His abdominal pain may not be related to liver spots at all. It may always be sign of some other issues such as IBD or gastritis. If these are just simple liver cysts then I dont think this is causing his symptoms.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
