Diffusely coarsened echotexture refers to a change in the ultrasound appearance of tissues, typically indicating a pathological process. This term is often used to describe liver conditions, where the normal, fine echotexture becomes more heterogeneous and coarse due to factors like fatty infiltration, fibrosis, or cirrhosis. The altered echogenicity and texture can be indicative of underlying liver disease or other organ pathologies.
Diffusely increased echotexture in the liver is typical of a fatty liver. When a liver is fatty it takes on a spongy appearance. This can be caused by either alcoholic or non alcoholic reasons.
What is heterogeneous echotexture
Cobrarlas hepática parenchyma
i just saw my abdominal echo and the results showed mild coarsening of the hepatic echotexture that could be related to diffuse hepatocelluiar disease. what does this mean> can it be cancer of liver?
To "diffuse" something means to "spread it out". Therefore, to say that someone's "legs ache diffusely" would mean that the pain is spread out through her legs, rather than only in one area. "Diffusely" would be another way of saying "all over".
what does this possibly mean. The uterus is borderline enlarged and shows heterogeneous echotexture, which is nonspecific. A uterine fibroid in the anterior body is possible
A homogeneous echotexture of the uterus means that the uterus is perfectly fine. It means there are no tumors, abnormalities, and that it is smooth in appearance.
This is A SOLID MASS o the lining of the uterus
Course inhomogeneous echotexture refers to a type of ultrasound finding characterized by a heterogeneous, uneven appearance of tissue echoes, often indicating the presence of abnormalities or irregularities within the tissue. This echotexture can suggest various conditions, such as inflammation, fibrosis, or tumors, depending on the organ being examined. It contrasts with a homogeneous echotexture, which appears uniform and smooth. Radiologists often use this descriptor to guide further evaluation and diagnosis.
what is normal in size but shows bright homogeneous echotexture in liver
i had test done an it said the liver appears homogeneous in echotexture with no evidence of hepatic mass or perihepatic collecttion ... so i am needing to know what that means do i have cancer in my liver ?
This means that the appearance or texture of the myometrium, which is the muscle layer of the uterus, is not uniform or consistent. Heterogeneous echotexture may be caused by various factors such as fibroids, adenomyosis, or scarring in the uterus. Further evaluation by a healthcare provider may be needed to determine the underlying cause.
