With no outward signs seen in many cases in terms of severity of liver problems, this 2 minute test of FibroScan can provide vital information about the health of the liver to the doctor.

Monitor changes to Liver disease progression

Monitoring of the changes in the liver becomes a breeze as there is no restrictions on the number of times a FibroScan can be used.

It’s different from simple ultrasound Ultrasound abdomen shows what’s there in the liver. FibroScan shows how much fat Is there in the liver and how hard it has become - stiffness which can’t be assessed by simple ultrasound. The relative stiffness of the liver can help a doctor assess liver fibrosis and fat condition. FibroScan’s proprietary version of transient elastography is a boon for patients and doctors as it is a non-invasive method to assess liver fibrosis & fat content.
