I'm really worried about my mom. We just got her ultrasound report and it says her liver is enlarged at 21.1 cm with increased echo texture, but there aren't any focal lesions. She has diabetes and high blood pressure too. Could this be related, or is it something different we should be concerned about? What might be causing these changes in her liver?
