A member asked:
What could cause a slightly enlarged liver (hepatomegaly) with normal liver values?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A radiology finding: Usually something noted or commented upon by a radiologist on ultrasound or ct scan. An enlarged liver with excess fatty cells can be from obesity, poor diabetes management, or other medical or medication induced liver changes. May be an incidental and clinically insignificant finding. Ask your doctor.
