A member asked:
Can hypoechoic areas in the liver be benign?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Hypoechoic areas in the liver can be benign. An example would be a hemangioma. Your physician or a gastroenterologist can review your scan together with the radiologist and decide whether any other imaging or needle biopsying of a lesion is advisable.
