Welcome to EmpowHER. A lesion is an area that has been identified as abnormal tissue. The problem is, without further testing and diagnosis a kidney lesion can mean anything from "nothing to worry about" to "very serious". A kidney lesion can either be benign or malignant. Hyperintense lesions are bright, white spots shown on certain types of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans.
