What does increased echogenicity of the hepatic parenchyma consistent with steatosis is demonstrated mean?
Increased echogenicity of the hepatic parenchyma consistent with steatosis means that there is an increase in fat content within the liver, leading to a brighter appearance on ultrasound. This finding is suggestive of fatty liver disease, which can be associated with conditions such as obesity, diabetes, and high alcohol consumption. Further evaluation and management may be needed to address this issue.

What diseases can effect the liver?
cirrhosis, hepatitis, cancer in the body elsewhere (steatosis)
What means fatty infiltration of liver and what is it's treatment and what is the difference between fatty infiltration of liver and fatty liver?

Which poisoning has yellow fatty liver?

Difference between fatty infiltration and fatty change?
Fatty infiltration refers to the abnormal accumulation of fat within cells or tissues, whereas fatty change refers to the process where normal cells contain more fat than usual, often due to an underlying condition like obesity or alcohol consumption. Fatty infiltration is usually a more severe and pathological process compared to fatty change.
Which organ does fatty food effect?
