Enhanced liver echogenicity is usually a manifestation of liver ultrasound, which can be considered to be related to fatty liver, hepatic cavernous hemangioma, intrahepatic bile duct stones or cirrhosis.
1. Fatty liver: a variety of etiologies such as obesity, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, etc. can induce the occurrence of fatty liver, ultrasound can be seen, diffuse fatty liver with diffuse and dense enhancement of liver parenchyma echoes, presenting as bright liver.
2. Hepatic cavernous hemangioma: the abnormal blood sinusoids in the liver are dilated, thus forming a benign tumor of the liver, i.e. hepatic hemangioma, the blood sinusoids are filled with blood, and the tumor is a homogeneous hypoechoic mass as seen in ultrasonography.
3. Intrahepatic bile duct stones: can be caused by biliary tract infection, biliary stasis, biliary tract parasites, etc. Ultrasonography shows high density of stones.
4. Cirrhosis: common cause of viral hepatitis, autoimmune hepatitis or alcoholism, etc., causing diffuse degeneration and necrosis of hepatocytes, fibrous tissue hyperplasia, hepatic lobe atrophy, typical cirrhosis ultrasound see diffuse thickening and enhancement of echoes.
After the examination shows the liver echogenic enhancement, the diagnosis should be clarified in time, and the treatment should be standardized according to the doctor’s prescription.
