@margaret12 Depending on the type of imaging (MRI, CT), my liver lesions have been described as both hypo and hyperattenuating and hypo and hyper-enhancing. Radiology is not my specialty, however, my understanding is the metastatic lesions are generally in the "hyper" realm. However, I also know it is not that simple. I think every case is individual. While I have some lesions that could be metastatic appearing on CT, they don't look like that on MRI. It can be a frustrating process, however, I have full confidence in my care team at Mayo. They are diligent and persistent in trying to figure out exactly what the lesions are.
I have had the same experience as you. Different characteristics, some new lesions appearing and stability in the ones they have been monitoring.
Where was your original tumor?
Thanks for your post!
