Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I think it is a follow up scan taken to reassess the previously detected liver lesion. The lesion size significantly decreased when compared to previous scan and it definitely indicates a good prognosis.

Wishing you good health.

Thanks.
