Actually it is very subjective. Blood tests for the liver are more accurate. Fatty liver is very common in alcoholics, overweight people, and just general bad diets. Changing your diet and exercising, and if you drink, quit!

I've been hearing this alot lately, my husband also has fatty liver. It is caused from a really bad diet. Your liver will look like your are and alcoholic or that you have hepatitis and will have scarring on it. Luckily your liver is very forgiving and can regenerate itself. Change your diet and use the following supplements:
1. Coenzyme Q10 - 60mg daily - supplies oxygen to the liver. A potent liver protector.
2. L-Cysteine and L-methionine - 500mg each daily before meals. Take with water or juice, not with milk. Aids in liver detoxification and protects the liver cells.
3. Lecithin capsules - 1,200mg 3x's daily before meals - prevents fatty buildup in the liver.
4. Milk thistle - 1,000mg daily - contains some of the most potent liver protecting substances known. Also stimulates the production of new liver cells.
5. Multivitamin and mineral complex plus Vit. B complex 50mg daily and Selenium 200mcg dily and zinc 30mg daily.
6. Vitamin C - 5,000mg daily in divided doses.
7. Vitamin E - 600 I.U. daily
I know it sounds like alot but your liver is in pretty bad shape! Good Luck!

Very. The fatty tissue will be a different color and texture from the liver itself and it shows up quite well on ultrasounds. DONT second guess your doctors judgement.

very acurate, if you have a fatty liver its probably down to booze, or bad diet, cut it down or stop
