Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.R.K and I am pleased to assist you.
Your ultrasound scan report says you might be probably having early cirrhosis of liver. Some of the common causes of cirrhosis of liver are chronic alcohol intake, hepatitis B and C infection.
You can confirm the diagnosis of cirrhosis with either a fibroscan or a liver biopsy.
I hope that answers your question.
Regards,
Dr.R.K.
