Who can take part
- You have had an ultrasound of your belly (abdomen) done as part of a health check-up.
- You do not drink a lot of alcohol.
- You do not have another liver disease, such as hepatitis.

This study tests a new ultrasound method to classify fatty liver disease, which might offer a safer and cheaper alternative to MRI. It compares ultrasound results with MRI in healthy people and those with liver disease to see if it can accurately measure liver fat and scarring.
This study looks at people with fatty liver disease and common health issues like obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, or abnormal cholesterol. It may help researchers understand how liver fat and heart/metabolism problems relate and how they affect health over time.
This study looks at how certain features of your metabolism affect a simple score (called the FAST score) in people with fatty liver disease (MASLD). It aims to help doctors better understand and manage the condition.
This study looks at fatty liver findings on emergency department scans. If you have fatty liver and were sent home from the ED, the study may help connect you to follow-up care and avoid future liver problems.
This study uses ultrasound to measure fat in your liver and check your heart's function to better understand your risk for heart problems. It may help doctors find ways to prevent heart disease in people with fatty liver disease.
This study checks how fatty liver disease (a condition where fat builds up in the liver) affects the heart. If you have this liver condition and are between 18 and 65, you may help doctors understand the link between liver health and heart function.
