If you are asking if it can be detected by ultrasound then yes - echo texture is one of the terms used in ultrasound scans.

Good morning Canttakemyeyesoffyou,

As AyrshireK has suggested Ultrasound scans are a diagnostic and monitoring tool used in the management/ detection of cirrhosis.

I have included links to British Liver Trust publications on cirrhosis and Liver Disease tests explained.
