Liver ultrasound results

Claire's liver ultrasound results were posted online today.  Although I haven't heard anything yet from the surgeon letting me know for sure that everything looks ok, from what I can read, it seems that Claire's liver looks normal with no cysts ("without definite focal hepatic lesions")!  Thank God!  Not sure about the normal size of a common bile duct or if Claire's is abnormal according to this.  Here are the official results below. 

Thank you for praying with us for good results (or at least I think I am reading that these are good results!)!

Love,
The Scott Family
