Hi,
What are the symptoms present? Fatty liver may be diagnosed with physical examination and through diagnostic tests such as blood tests and imaging studies. The only way to confirm a diagnosis of fatty liver disease is with a liver biopsy.  It is best that you discuss the results with your attending physician for proper evaluation.Take care and regards.
