What is metabolic-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and how is it diagnosed? — Expert Video
Transplant hepatologist Dr. Amit Singal of UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas provides an overview of metabolic-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and how it is diagnosed. He explains that MASH is a progressive form of fatty liver disease characterized by fat buildup, inflammation, and damage to liver cells. While some individuals have fat deposits in the liver without complications (referred to as bland steatosis), others develop inflammation that can lead to scarring (fibrosis) and potentially cirrhosis.
