Hi,

This is nonspecific finding and there are few possible causes. In most cases this is just benign liver cysts or hemartomas and rarely, this is sign of metastatic liver diseases. He should do CT scan or MRI scan for more precise results but if he doesn't have any liver related symptoms then he should not be worried.

I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time. Wish you a good health.

Kindly regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein
