Fatty liver (steatosis of the liver) is one of the most common reasons people have abnormal liver blood tests. The liver is very active in handling fat. It takes lipoproteins (fats) from the blood, reworks them, and secretes them in a different form. The liver also makes and burns fat.he GOT or GPT (also known as AST and ALT) liver blood tests are often slightly elevated, usually less than twice normal. Ultrasound of the abdomen usually shows the liver is âechogenic,â that is more dense than usual toward sound waves.
Hi Erin, The normal kidney size of an adult human is about 10 to 13 cm long, about 5 to 7.5 cm wide and a thickness of about 3 to 4 cm.. Sometimes, the kidneys are not exactly the same in size. The left kidney is usually bigger.
The mean thickness of this body part is around 3 centimeters. The mean weight of a kidney is 120 grams to 150 grams. With these dimensions, any decrease in the kidney size is abnormal. However, the size of a kidney can still grow after maturation. This can happen if one of the kidneys was removed.
