Hello and welcome to HCM,
The interpretation of the angiogram is as follows:
The lungs show presence of a sub-pleural cyst in the lower lobe.
Sub-pleural cyst implies a fluid filled cavity below the pleura i.e. covering of the lungs.
One of the liver lobes show calcification which corresponds to granulomas. Granulomas are formed as a result of chronic infections/ inflammations like tuberculosis, sarcoidosis, fungal infection, berylliosis etc.
The peri-bronchial wall is slightly thickened. Bronchi are the main air ways which direct the air from nose to lungs.
The granulomas in liver need to be investigated regarding their cause and thus management.

Thanks and take care
