Hello. With the question: "Is liver calcification dangerous? How's the treatment?" Your doctor would advise as follows:
Liver calcification is a benign lesion of the liver that does not require treatment if there are no symptoms (abdominal pain). You need to periodically monitor every 6-12 months with liver ultrasound so that a specialist can monitor and give appropriate treatment for liver calcification. If the lesion is advanced or a liver tumor is suspected, further blood tests and liver CT/MRI will be required.
You should go to reputable medical facilities or one of the hospitals of Vinmec Health System nationwide for more specific examination and advice.
Thank you for trusting and asking questions to Vinmec. Best regards!
