The Importance of the Liver and Its Vital Functions

The liver, located in the upper right part of the abdomen, is one of the body’s most essential organs. It acts as a natural filter to purify the blood from toxins and performs several vital functions, including:

• Metabolism: Regulating glucose, fats, and proteins levels.
• Bile Production: Aiding in fat digestion.
• Detoxification: Processing and removing harmful substances from the body.
• Storage of Vitamins and Minerals: Ensuring the body’s essential needs are met.

Major Liver-Related Conditions

Several liver conditions require precise radiological examinations for diagnosis. Among the most common are:

Fatty Liver (Steatohepatitis)

• Accumulation of fat in liver cells, which may lead to chronic inflammation and complications.

Cholestasis

• The slowing or stopping of bile flow, impacting digestion and causing other health issues.

Liver Cancer (Hepatocellular Carcinoma)

• Tumors that can impair liver function and spread to other parts of the body.

Cancer Metastases

• The spread of cancer to the liver from other tumors, such as:
  • Colorectal cancer
  • Lung cancer
  • Skin cancer
