Fatty liver on an incidental scan two years ago and nobody followed it up. Now that I am losing weight I would like to know what to re-measure.

What I actually want to know is whether normalised enzymes tell you anything about fibrosis, and what the right follow-up measurement is.

Tell me what I have not thought of.

Liver enzyme update related to liver and MASH: I had mildly elevated ALT/AST at baseline (likely NAFLD). After 7 months on GLP-1 therapy:

MarkerBaselineCurrentNormal Range
ALT67297-56 U/L
AST552710-40 U/L
GGT72359-48 U/L
ALP1027944-147 U/L

FibroScan also improved — liver stiffness from 9.5 kPa to 6.2 kPa. The evidence for GLP-1 agonists in NAFLD/NASH is very promising.

ATTAIN trial (survodutide) context for liver and MASH: survodutide, a GLP-1/glucagon dual agonist, showed -18.7% body weight at 46 weeks in the Phase 3 ATTAIN trial. NASH resolution was achieved in ~60% of patients[1].

This is relevant to liver and MASH because survodutide's glucagon agonism specifically targets hepatic lipid metabolism — making it potentially the best-in-class agent for NASH/MAFLD comorbid with obesity.

Second this. Nothing to add that would improve it.

From the other side of the consultation, briefly.

Liver ultrasound comparison for liver and MASH: my hepatologist ordered serial ultrasounds to track NAFLD regression.

Baseline: "Moderate hepatic steatosis, liver span 17.2cm, echogenic texture consistent with fat infiltration"
Month 8: "Mild steatosis, liver span 15.8cm, improved echogenicity"
Month 14: "Minimal to no steatosis, normal liver span 14.5cm, normal echotexture"

My liver literally shrank and de-fattened. The ultrasound tech said she's seen this pattern increasingly in GLP-1 patients and it's remarkable how consistently the fatty liver resolves.
