Hello,
The finding of the glandular material in the uterine wall may cause the
uterus to become enlarged (called hypertrophy) and sometimes doctors use the term 'bulky uterus'.
This simply means that the uterus is larger than normal and more than 6 cm thick.
A uterus can become enlarged for many reasons, the most common being fibroids. These are benign, muscular tumors that grow in the wall of the uterus and can cause pain and bleeding.
An enlarged uterus may cause a number of symptoms, such as weakness, cramping,
constipation, pain during sex and menstrual abnormalities.
An enlarged uterus is usually not a cause for concern, provided that its cause has been determined by sonogram or
CT scan.
Increased echogenicity is common in chronic infection or inflammation of
liver like
hepatitis.
It is related to fatty infiltration and the degree of fibrotic changes present. Increased Hepatic echogenicity is a sonographic descriptor where there uniform smooth hepatic echotexture of the liver is lost.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
