It was labeled simple cyst also the main portal vein is obscured as well. Under impression it says probable hepatic steatosis simple cyst in left kidney poor visualization of the right kidney. The inferior vena cava mainportal vein and pancreas are also not seen because of patient habitus . If these regions are of clinical concern, consider CT scan what does all this mean?
Hi. The report says : there id fat infiltration of liver, simple cyst of kidney has no clinical importance, All the parts not visualized are due to limitation of ultrasound to visualize these parts. CT scan will definitely evaluate all these parts well.
