Schistosoma hepatic fibrosis: it is mainly caused by the infection of Schistosoma, when Schistosoma invades into the liver tissue and causes liver damage, it will cause irregular liver morphology and reticulate echoes. 2. Autoimmune cirrhosis: it is caused by the abnormal autoimmune function, when the liver immune system is damaged and affects the liver tissue, it will cause the liver form to be irregular and the echogenic part to be reticular. 3. Alcoholic hepatitis: it is related to long-term alcohol consumption.
