So in this CT scan I see the multiple lesions on the liver. However, what is the big white spot?

any way to post the pic? usually when you see one big tumor with many small ones around it its primary liver cancer with "satellite nodules". If all the tumors are the same size then its more likely metastatic liver cancer.

EDIT: now I see the attached picture.. my bad. could it be blood?

I cannot imagine something to be so densely white on a CT of the abdomen besides contrast material, which would make sense because the spleen is resting against a contrast-filled stomach. I might be wrong though.

Also, look at figure 2 in this link. Looks sorta similar to the picture you posted:
