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

Liver imaging follow-up for liver and MASH: FibroScan at baseline showed CAP score 326 dB/m (moderate steatosis) and stiffness 10.8 kPa (possible fibrosis). Diagnosed with NAFLD.

After 12 months: CAP dropped to 229 dB/m (minimal steatosis) and stiffness normalized to 6.199999999999999 kPa. Hepatologist says the liver is essentially healing itself as the metabolic stress resolves.

GLP-1 agonists may become first-line NASH therapy. The Phase 3 data on semaglutide for NASH is very promising.

Fatty liver on an incidental scan two years ago and nobody followed it up.

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.

Coming at sarah.morrison’s question from a different direction. Most of what circulates confidently in this community traces back to one summary of one study, and the qualifier was dropped somewhere in the third retelling.

One thing that is still open after carlos_SATX’s answer:

What would you measure differently if you were starting again?

Closing the loop on my own question.

Late follow-up. I did not do what was suggested, I did something adjacent, and it worked; posting the difference in case it matters to somebody.
