My recent US report read Mildy echogenic and coarsened echotexture no focal mass. Does that mean cirrhosis now or just fatty liver? Ultra sound Impression read: Mildly ecohgenicity of the liver may signify fatty infiltration's or early hepatic parenchymal
Abdominal utrasound results: Liver - increased echogenicity (coarse). Does coarse imply scarring/fibrosis/cirrhosis?
When they say hepatic echogenicity can be due to fatty liver hepatitis or cirrhosis now mine says this how can I be sure it isnt cirrhosis?
I lost 30lbs since 2016 when they first told me I had fatty liver. New Ultrasound indicates Increased echogenicity within the liver indicative of fatty infiltration or diffuse hepatocellular disease. Im afraid is cirrhosis. How can I know?
The 'Finding' on US "increased parenchymal echogenicity w/out focal mass lesion." The Impression states: "Echodense liver consistent w/ diffuse hepatocellular disease." Is it more likely simple fatty liver, another type of fatty liver, or cirrhosis?
