Diffuse fatty infiltration of the liver - what is that means.?


Can someone please tell me in a way I can undestand (english) what is diffuse fatty infiltration of the liver. The CT scanning appears to be normar but with the above info.

I have two previous CT with - Mosaic attenuation patter - and Mosaic perfusion. At this point I do not know if the scanning people know what they are doing or my health is fine.

I have severe symptoms of pain on my Left Upper Quadrant Abdomen with mass in my abdomen followed by left upper back bruise (white spot - similar to bite)

I just need your opinon of what possibilities of problems could that be. - It is over a year of testing with lots of drugs but no soluction.

Please no website just your opionin.

I thank you very much

Fatty infiltration is when the cells of an organ have absorbed fat from outside of it. In a nutshell your liver sucked up fat that surrounded it.

Mosaic attenuation pattern has to do with what the person reading the CT scan is seeing. It is a pattern of darkness and lightness that resembles a form of art in which tiles are inlayed to form a picture. What they are seeing is the density of your liver varying in density wildly. This could be due to tumor versus healthy tissue versus fatty tissue.

I have no idea what would cause a white spot on the outside of your body in relation to a mass inside of it though--that sounds a bit odd.
