Abstract

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the presence of excess fat in the liver that occurs without significant alcohol consumption [1]. It is typical for the liver to have a small amount of fat. However, when fat makes up more than 5% to 10% of the liver's weight, it is called fatty liver (steatosis) [2,3].
