Current status of imaging in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

Figure 1 Pathological changes of liver simple steatosis and cirrhosis. A: 45-year-old man with simple steatosis. The liver biopsy shows marked macrovesicular steatosis without inflammation or fibrosis (H and E x4); B: 48-year-old man with cirrhosis due to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. In addition to marked macrovesicular steatosis, there is loss of normal hepatic architecture and replacement by regenerative nodules surrounded by bands of fibrous tissue, a characteristic feature of cirrhosis (H and E x4).
