Health: Results from the ultrasound:

Normal-appearing gallbladder...
...obscured visualization of the pancreas.

Within the liver, there are two areas of somewhat indistinct but persistant increased echogenicity, one measures 16 mm in size and located in the left lobe of the liver, and the other measures just over 1 cm in size and is located near the central aspect of the right lobe of the liver.

...a triphasic CT scan is recommended to confirm that these areas have characteristics of hemangiomas, and for evaluation of the pancreas.
