To diagnose fatty liver disease, an ultrasound examination or laboratory findings are required. “However, mild fatty liver disease does not yet show up in the blood count; certain liver values only increase when the disease is already advanced,” explains Primate Rainer Schöfl from the Ordensklinikum. A newer diagnostic method is elastography, which measures the elasticity of tissue. “This causes no pain or side effects for patients and eliminates the need for many liver punctures.”
