Daughter showed enlarged liver on x-ray. but had normal blood work results. what could this mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
X-ray is not: The best way to evaluate the liver. There are some normal anatomic variations in which the liver might appear spuriously enlarged on X-rays. Needs to be confirmed or ruled out with another study, probably ultrasound.
