Hi Montygi, not sure what type of test is giving the doctors the numbers but the ultrasound can show fatty or enlarged liver or cancer. It can't show fibrosis or cirrhosis, you would need other testing for that. If you have just a fatty liver you can usually turn that around by diet and exercise. Good luck.
