is this NASH?

[me_just34]

when i had pain in right quadrant, elevated liver enzymes  and did ultrasound the result was:

Ultrasonography of the right hypochondrium:

Signs of hepatic steatosis, no focal liver lesions.
Transsonante gallbladder with normal gallbladder wall, no dilated bile ducts.
Normal right kidney.

does this mean i have  nash?

I'm sorry that I overlooked that.
Ultrasound isn't really reliable in distinguishing NASH from NAFLD.
A liver biopsy is the most reliable diagnostic test.

Good luck,
Mike

my report is not a biopsy report but an ultrasound report.

From the Mayo Clinic:

"Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is a term used to describe the accumulation of fat in the liver of people who drink little or no alcohol.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is common and, for most people, causes no signs and symptoms and no complications.

But in some people with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, the fat that accumulates can cause inflammation and scarring in the liver. This more serious form of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is sometimes called nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.

At its most severe, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease can progress to liver failure.....

NASH = Non Alcoholic Steatohepatitis.
I believe what you have is Fatty Liver Disease which is not NASH.
If you had NASH your biopsy report should have indicated that.

I would get advice about any dietary restrictions that would be beneficial as well as an exercise program.

Good luck,
Mike
