HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
(1)Sclerotic lesion in vertebral body- lesion in the vertebra (bones of the back), with associated thickening of the bone
(2)deposits in the mesentry, right subhepatic region and pelvis- areas of cancer lesions were noted in different part of the abdomen (mesentry and right subhepatic) and also in the pelvis
(3)multiple peripancreatic, paraaortic and right external iliac nodes- enlarged lymph nodes throughout the abdomen
(4)pancreatic atrophy- decreased size of the pancreas
I hope this helps and wish your family the best
