Urologist,  's  Response
Hello Subhasis and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, let me try to explain the report.
Normally,sound or"echo"waves, pass uniformly through the kidney tissue.
But, in your case, they are 'hyper'echoic, meaning, of increased penetration.
SOL,means"space occupying lesion",so there's an abnormal area there.
Again, liver should show uniform,sound penetration. Report is coarse.
Early, prostate gland enlargement is also seen. If you can send the scan, with urine and blood reports, as a direct question to me, i can give an expert opinion.

Nephrologist,  Dr. Jay Patel's  Response
Hi, welcome to HCM.
SOL in the kidney can be benign tumor or malignancy.
It can be further clarified with CT scan with contrast.
Do basic urine report and S.creatinine and S. PSA with fractions.
Coarse liver parenchyma requires evaluation by gastroenterologist to rule out cirrhosis of liver.
You can communicate with me further with above reports.
I think this would be helpful to you.
Best wishes. TC.
