Hello,

I was diagnosed with fatty liver with fibrosis. I had a fibroscan done which showed moderate to severe scarring. Does this mean I have NASH?

Hi Pale

You should look to your doctor for a diagnosis but the definition of NASH is when fatty liver results in scarring. It is a bit more complicated but that is the simple version
