What Does This Ultrasound Report Indicate?
there are parts that do not appear alike or similar
Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Echotexture refers to the structure of the organ that is being studied by ultrasound (how the ultrasound technician sees the liver, in this case, on ultrasoun).
Heterogenous means that the structure of the liver is not uniform, all of the different areas of the liver appear the same or similar. There are differences seen.
According to the report, the changes may be due to fatty liver (build up of fat in the liver) though it also states that there may be other causes as well.
The statin was to help decrease the fat build up but diet changes and exercise can also help as well.
Muscle pain due to statins normally resolve within 1 to 3 weeks of discontinuation of the medication.
If it persists for longer, it is possible it is not related to the statins
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
