That lesion was coincidentally detected but you will need further work-up for that. I may or may not related to your thoracic spine problem.

The majority of liver lesions seen on MRI are hyperintense and thus, it's a nonspecific finding. A hepatologist or gastroenterologist should be consulted to further investigate/advise you about further testing and appropriate follow-up for this lesion.
