Liver, Pancreas & Biliary Center

Liver disease can include the buildup of fat (fatty liver), inflammation (hepatitis), viral infection (viral hepatitis and scarring and cell damage, or cirrhosis). The pancreas may be affected by inflammation (pancreatitis), while common biliary function problems include bile duct disorders, gallstones and gallbladder inflammation (cholecystitis).
