Why is oncologist not concerned about liver lesion?

So my husband has prostate cancer with mets to the bone, diagnosed 2 years ago, and he just had a CT scan done. They detected a lesion in his liver that was not there before. But the oncologist didn't even mention it? Can they tell it's not from the prostate cancer just from a CT scan?

Benign liver cysts are common in everyone. But it's a good question to ask the MO.

Learning questions - What's the risk to have liver cysts and what are treatment options ?

No risk. Completely benign.

My scans show the same. Nothing to worry about.
