The liver is one of the largest organs in the body and is part of your digestive system. It is shaped like a pyramid, sitting under your right lung inside your ribs. The liver can be damaged from viruses, too much alcohol use or fat. When this happens the liver cells become inflamed and over time die, which develops scar tissue. When enough of the liver has been replaced by scar tissue, it is called cirrhosis. People with cirrhosis are at risk for a variety of problems, including liver failure, developing fluid in the legs and stomach and enlarged veins along the esophagus called varices. Per year, 2 to 3 percent of people with cirrhosis also develop liver cancer, so imaging tests are recommended to try and see these lesions as soon as possible.
