Question: I recently had an ultrasound done of my liver and my liver was moderately enlarged and measured 20.4 centimeters and that is up from a few years ago when it measured 15.5 centimeters. It seems as though I have a fatty liver and a contoured liver due to apparently cirrhosis. Seems to be a cist as well that is not of much concern apparently.
