A member asked:
The 'finding' on us "increased parenchymal echogenicity w/out focal mass lesion." the impression states: "echodense liver consistent w/ diffuse hepatocellular disease." is it more likely simple fatty liver, another type of fatty liver or cirrhosis?

The findings you provided suggest more than fatty liver. It would be prudent to see a liver specialist, as it is not feasible to provide meaningful opinion without examining you and additional testing. Wish you good health!
