Recently diagnosed and have a question

Hi- My mom was recently diagnosed with MS (my grandmother also has it).  The MRI showed a few lesions on her brain and quite a few on her spine in the cervical area.  The MRI also showed a "nodule" that the doctor wants to get a closer look at.  Can anyone tell me what a nodule means in this context ( i know the medical terminology definition, as I am a health science major in college), and what the doctor could be looking for (what does having a nodule imply?).  Thanks!

I am sorry that your family has to repeatedly deal with this disease.  I actually don't know the answer to your question, but I am bumping your post so others can hopefully reply.  Best wishes to your family!
