Ultrasound in diagnosing Hepatic Steatosis

Hey guys.

While reading and analyzing all of the articles for this week, I found myself very intrigued by a particular method in one of them. In the article, "Young adult obese subjects with and without insulin resistance: what is the role..." I was surprised by their use of Ultrasonography and all of the essential data it is able to provide. This sparked my interest and I searched for more information on the importance of this. Whether this technique/method is "old news" or not, I had never heard of its specific use on MS and HS, and came across this piece of literature. I didn't know if any one else was as curious as I was about it, so here it is if you'd like to take a look!

See ya in class :)
