Definition:The number of tumorous lesions in or on the surface of the liver, or in a specified section of the liver, the large, highly vascularized organ located in the abdomen of vertebrates that secretes bile and is active in the formation of certain blood proteins, in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins and in the detoxification of noxious substances. A tumorous lesion is one which is or has the potential to become a tumor, that is, a neoplasm or new growth of tissue in which cell multiplication is more or less uncontrolled and progressive. Tumorous lesions include tumors, preneoplastic lesions, and hyperplastic lesions composed of histologically normal cells.
