What does it mean when leisons in the liver lose density?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hypodense means: less dense than the surrounding tissues. the commonest cause is liver cysts, but can also be abscesses, hemangiomas, adenomas and some types of malignancies. a lot depends on the number and size - may need a dedicated liver scan (CT or MRI).
