Ct scan reveals mild diffuse fatty infiltration of liver.galbladder is contracted-post prandial status pancreas is obscured by bowl gases.whats this?

Fatty liver: Hi. What was the indication for the abdominal CT? Elevated liver enzymes? The only objective abnormality there is the mild fatty liver (aka hepatic steatosis). The empty gallbladder is not a problem. The fact the pancreas can't be visualized well is probably not a problem unless the CT was being done to look for pancreatic pathology. Do you have type 2 diabetes?
