A member asked:
Hepatomegaly with fatty liver appearance on abdominal ultrasound, but blood test and fibroscan normal. should i worry?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ultra sound is not as precise as other tests eg CT scan for liver. Hepatomegaly can be felt by a doc and if you have it should be confirmed by other test. Tho chances of that with normal liver function are pretty low
