Lesions shrinking on MRI

Hello, my latest MRI showed a lesion that had schrunk. Does anyone have experience with schrinking lesions? If so, did you do anything to make that happen? I like the idea of them shrinking away... 😉💪 (Sorry for my bad English and maybe my naivety)

How do you read them? Was also sent the report for it which is total gibberish too...
