Overview
Ultrasound
Imaging studies are often obtained during the evaluation process. Ultrasonography reveals a "bright" liver with increased echogenicity.
Fatty infiltration on ultrasound
Fatty liver on ultrasound. Note that the liver is very echogenic when compared to the right kidney
The accuracy of ultrasound for detecting mild steatosis has been reported as[1]:
- Sensitivity 83%
- Specificity 81%
