摘要：

The cardinal features of hepatic steatosis on ultrasound examination are now accepted as increased echogenicity of the liver parenchyma with increased attenuation of the ultrasound beam. Three cases are presented of patients with gross diffuse fatty infiltration of the liver, who showed a paradoxical lack of posterior attenuation on ultrasound examination. These examples serve to illustrate the role of scattering in attenuation of the ultrasound beam seen in fatty livers.
