A member asked:
What does this mean: focal fatty replacement of liver along the falciform ligament? i don't drink alcohol, and i'm short/skinny, and on no meds.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fatty liver: This is not an uncommon condition. While alcohol can certainly contribute to fatty liver, non alcoholic causes include obesity, diabetes, prediabetes, high cholesterol, and triglycerides. Consider discussing this with your doctor to get the appropriate testing done.
