FIBROSCAN

FibroScan

FibroScan is the first and only non-invasive device for diagnosis and monitoring of hepatic fibrosis.

Why do we need to quantify liver fibrosis?

In its initial stages, liver fibrosis develops silently and often causes no symptoms. Early diagnosis and treatment will help prevent the disease from progressing to liver cancer, liver function failure, or other complications which may lead to more serious conditions and even death.

  • Alcoholics
  • Increased liver enzymes due to various causes
  • Obesity, fatty liver, blood lipid disorder, diabetes, hypertension

Advantages of FibroScan

  • Result is delivered in a few minutes
  • FibroScan can be applied instead of liver biopsy to help doctors make the next step for diagnosis and treatment
  • Painless and harmless
  • Can be performed many times for monitoring the liver fibrosis
