Description
Paul Góngora-Chan and co-authors set CT scan cutoffs for grading fatty liver in adults with metabolic liver disease, in a study from two thousand twenty-six. One hundred five patients in southeastern Mexico had both CT and ultrasound scans. Cutoffs were derived in most of the group and checked in the rest.
Three density bands split the grades, from severe at the lowest readings to mild at the highest. In the check group, CT grades matched ultrasound grades almost perfectly. In a small biopsy subgroup, CT grade also tracked true fat share. The authors offer the cutoffs for steadier fatty liver grading across care settings.
