I recently had a MRI with contrast, it reads their is bilateral lower lobe atelectasis. The liver is low-attenuation consistent with fatty infiltration.their are multiple gallstones w/out gallbladder wall thickening or pericholecystic fluid. can you please tell me what this means in words and in a way I can understand? am I ok? I also just figured out and come back to my question that I had to pay to have this answered but i dont have a credit card, so if a doc really reads this and I am in danger please e-mail meand just say so
Hello Finding suggests presence of multiple gall bladder calculi and wall of gall bladder is normal. It shows absence of acute infection. Definitive treatment of gall bladder calculus is surgical removal of gall bladder(cholecystectomy). Gall bladder calculus is prone to infection and obstruction, so it is advised to get rid of calculus early. Finding also suggests fat deposition in the liver cells and this is called as fatty liver. It is a reversible condition. You should avoid fatty food and go for brisk walk regularly. There is also atelectasis(loss of aeration)in both lower lobes of lungs. It may be due to many reasons like persistent infection, secretions etc. Take Care Chat Doctor.
