Popis: | Non-alcoholic fatty liver comprises several clinical entities, starting from hepatic steatosis and reaching steatohepatitis, fibrosis and liver cirrhosis; it is currently considered a major public health issue. The most important risk factors for non-alcoholic fatty liver are obesity, type II diabetes and dyslipidaemia. At present, it is of great importance the study of non-invasive diagnostic methods to identify imaging techniques that correlate with steatohepatitis and liver fibrosis and to establish clear indications of liver biopsy in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver. |
