Etymology
Multilobulated comes from multi- meaning 'many' and lobe meaning 'a rounded section', the same 'lobe' you know from an ear or the brain. So multilobulated means 'having several rounded parts or lobes', which is why doctors use it to describe a mass with many small rounded sections on a scan.
