Answer
Hello, the doctor would like to answer the question: "Is liver ultrasound with a mixed mass of right liver and fatty liver dangerous? ” as follows:
Echo or "echo" is a technical term used in ultrasound, this word alone has no meaning related to pathology, perhaps due to the habit of doctors when recording results.
As for the "mixed-negative mass" in your liver, ultrasound can detect mass abnormalities in the liver that are an area of ​​the liver that may or may not be bordered, size, abnormal compared to In the remaining areas of the liver, this mass can be hyperechoic, hypoechoic, mixed sound, echogenic or drum sound depending on the type of lesion.
Mixed negative block means that the components in that block are not identical, it can be translated, reduced, mixed with each other, ... and each of these combinations is also towards a group certain illness.
In your question, there is a lot of information missing such as large or small block size, clear or unclear boundary, border or not, whether there is a circuit signal in the block, what type of audio mix block, etc. .. and your accompanying systemic symptoms, especially right upper quadrant pain, fever, jaundice, weight loss,...
Moreover, liver ultrasound is only a diagnostic imaging method. There is currently a block to guide further examinations so it is not possible to say if there is a risk. However, it is imperative that you go to the doctor immediately to clarify what the mass is.
As for fatty liver grade I, with your age and female gender, there is no serious problem, you test your blood fat to see if it has increased, control your weight if you are overweight, eat healthy, lose weight fat, animal viscera, eat a lot of green vegetables, exercise.
