Figure 4 Unenhanced computed tomography of the abdomen in a patient with fatty liver disease.
Regions of interest placed within the liver and spleen demonstrate a hepatic attenuation of 16.75 Hounsfield units (less than 40) and a splenic attenuation of 40.68 Hounsfield units. This meets the definition of fatty liver on CT by absolute value, liver/spleen attenuation difference, and liver/spleen attenuation ratio criteria.
