Cirrhosis, Fibrosis
Conditions
Brief summary
Fatty liver is a condition in which fat builds up in liver. it is very common health issue.it is major public health problems in the world. there is particular concern because fatty liver causes mortality among patients. The incidence and prevalence of disease vary with time. Fibrosis is thickening of connective tissues which is usually as a result of injury and long term inflammation. Cirrhosis is severe scarring of liver which is caused by long term liver damage. The scar tissue replaces healthy tissues which leads to loss of liver function. The Objective of study is to look into radiographic features of fatty liver disease. The high resolution ultrasonography will give more detailed view of disease. The study inclued 150 participants.
Detailed description
The other liver conditions like fibrosis and cirrhosis are also examined and correlated with fatty liver disease. The CT and MRI are used to compare with HR ultrasonographic findings. Descriptive statistics and comparative statistics are used to interpret data.
Interventions
to compare high resolution ultrasonography finings with other imaging modalities(CT and MRI)
