It is possible that the first MRI missed the cysts or hemangiomas. Although possible, it is less likely that new cysts or hemangiomas would have formed in the span of a month.
You can consider a blood test for an alpha-fetoprotein if liver cancer is a concern.
However, I would discuss the results of these MRIs with your personal physician. It will be likely a repeat imaging study will be needed in the near future to ensure that the lesions are not spreading nor growing.
Followup with your personal physician is essential.

I have had two alpha feta tests and both were negative. However, I realize that those results are not always reflective of what is actually going on. So it is unlikely a new hemangioma would occur in the span of six weeks. Correct?
I know for a fact that hemangiomas can originate in the liver from birth. Did you have a hemangioma after birth because if you did, there is a chance that they can also be internal.
