Just recently had an MRI done on my liver because my liver enzymes were high.

Here are the results of the MRI. I'm afraid this leans toward cancer, but I'm not entirely sure.

1.2 cm T2 hyperintense, homogeneously enhancing mass within the lateral segment of left lobe of the liver. No restricted diffusion identified within this nodule. Enhancement persists on delayed imaging. This could represent an atypical flash type hemangioma. Would recommend ultrasound of the liver with hopes of documenting ultrasound characteristics of a benign cavernous hemangioma. In the setting of a known primary tumor metastatic disease could not be excluded on the current exam.
