A member asked:
What does heterogeneous echotexture of the liver mean? my ulta sound also said for liver no mass and normal size.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It means that: the liver texture is not uniform. Most commonly this is due to fatty infiltration, a benign condition with numerous causes. It can also be due to various other inflammatory or infiltrative processes. It is a nonspecific finding, so it has to be interpreted in the context of your clinical picture and lab values. Talk to your doctor about the significance in your particular case.
