Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
Your ultrasound reports say the following:
Presence of dark areas in the spleen (further characterization necessary to say what it is).
Liver shows fat accumulation and cysts. Fat accumulation may be a normal variation or a sign of disease.
Endometrial thickened at 2.8 cm needs a gynecological clinical discussion.
Ovarian cysts as you say have been there for ten years and this also may be discussed.
Swollen neck lymphnodes require a medical opinion as well.
