A member asked:

What does spotting of the liver mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It depends: If this was seen on an imaging study (like ultrasound or ct) it can mean there are spots in the liver. These are most often cysts, but in the setting of cirrhosis could be something more serious. Discuss this with your doctor.
