Just received results from ultra sound of abdomen. There are 2 comments: 1) mildly fatty liver without a focal mass and 2) no discrete focal sonographic abnormality, although right Lowe quadrant is mostly obscured by bowel gas - recommend clinical correlation. What does this mean? Thank you

Simple fatty liver have excessive fat in liver it can cause damaging the liver function. A simple fatty liver not have elevated liver enzyme. only when there is inflammation is present the liver enzyme are elevated. it can cause liver damage.fatty liver have normal liver enzyme only.so nothing wrong with the ultrasound .
