Overview
Ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of glycogen storage disease type 1. Findings on an ultrasound suggestive of glycogen storage disease type 1 include hepatomegaly, increased hepatic echogenicity, and enlarged kidneys. Abdominal ultrasound should be performed at baseline and every 12-24 months to detect transformation of hepatocellular adenoma to hepatocellular carcinoma.
Ultrasound
- Ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of glycogen storage disease type 1. Findings on an ultrasound suggestive of glycogen storage disease type 1 include:[1]
- Hepatomegaly
- Increased hepatic echogenicity
- Enlarged kidneys
- Abdominal ultrasound should be performed at baseline and every 12-24 months to detect transformation of hepatocellular adenoma to hepatocellular carcinoma.[2][3]
