Need more details: Why did you have your liver checked in the first place?. Tell us your history and which test did you have done that showed increased metabolic activity?

High uptake: I would ask your ordering physician to review the study with the radiologist and ask him what the significance of this finding is in your case. Homogeneous implies that there are no discrete growths seen, but your physician,after consultation with the radiologist, will answer your question best.
