Ultrasound shows fatty infiltration or hepatocellular parenchymal liver disease. What does it mean?

Hi,

Welcome toicliniq.com.

To identify fibrosis you need to get a fibroscan (transient elastography). How are your other blood reports? Are you symptomatic now? Please send across details so that further discussion can be done.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

The change in LFT (liver function test) including GGT (Gamma-glutamyl transferase) is more likely due to liver cell injury from alcohol. You need to be on strict abstinence now from alcohol and liver toxic medicines. Be on a high protein diet with low fat and carbohydrates. Keep yourself well hydrated. You can also try medicines like Ursodeoxycholic acid, Vitamin E, and Thiamine for four weeks.

Get a liver function test repeated after four weeks to assess the response. The current injury is transient and well reversible if further hits are avoided to the liver. No need for fibroscan at this stage.

I hope this helps.
