Histological1
The second neoplasm may have the same or different histological type and can occur in the same or different organs as the previous neoplasm but in all cases arises from an independent oncogenic event. (lookformedical.com)
Liver1
It is also employed for the detection of malignant tumors including those of the brain, liver, and thyroid gland. (lookformedical.com)
