Hi , thanks for the information ... I think hemangioma is a scary word . I hope to know more after my ultrasound on the 1st . I can't stand any of this waiting to hear . thank you thank you thank you for all your answers and help , ....   :)

They will call you back to repeat your CT scan. there is a protocal that can be used to prove that what is on your liver is truly a hemangioma.  You will have to drink the "stuff" again and you will get the IV dye again.  They take a full view of your abd, then take pictures of just the area where the hemangioma is in timed intervals.  Hemangiomas will fill with contrast(the dye) but it takes longer than a vein or artery would. That is why it did not show any contrast on your CT and that is why they have to take several pictures on a time schedule.  Alot of people have hemangiomas and it scares everyone when they are first found.

thanks ,
I was caught so off guard today when the Dr. called . I was at work and had tons of people around and didn't even know what to ask . I was expecting him to say I had gall stones or honestly nothing . I wasn't even prepared to hear his voice , usually it takes a few days for results so I was thrown off , he called at 8:15 am and I only had the CT scan the day before late in the afternoon .Thank you again for your explanation and time , I will have my pelvic ultrasound tomorrow and hopefully all will be aok . :)

OK, I will give it a try.  Normally, there is only a small amount of fluid in the pelvic cul-de-sac.  I think I recall reading that 9 or 10 ml is normal, but don't quote me on this number as I really do not remember.  When a cyst ruptures, the fluid within the cyst is released into the abdomen, which then increases the fluid amount.  Another cause of fluid in the abdomen is a type of cyst which bleeds into the abdomen while remaining cyst-like.  Often a doctor will refer to such cysts as hemorrhagic. Hemorrhagic cysts can also bleed "inwardly" affecting the ovary to a greater extent and causing the cyst to grow larger, rapidly.   Yet another cause of excess fluid in the abdomen,  which is a condition called "ascites" should you see that term, is liver disfunction.  This disfunction can be caused by temporary illness or by chronic disease of the liver. A hemangioma (and darn it I have spelled that incorrectly I am sure) is a cluster of blood vessels.  These can form for a variety of reasons, and are often found on the skin of multiple-birth children (like quadruplets for example).
