Understanding Fibroscan:

Fibroscan is a non-invasive diagnostic test used to evaluate the stiffness of the liver and detect liver fibrosis or scarring. It works similarly to an ultrasound, using elastic waves to measure how stiff the liver tissue is. Fibroscan provides an accurate assessment of liver health without the need for a traditional liver biopsy, making it a preferred method for diagnosing and monitoring chronic liver diseases.

Why is Fibroscan Done?

  • Assessing liver fibrosis in patients with chronic liver diseases such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
  • Monitoring liver health in patients with cirrhosis or other progressive liver conditions.
  • Providing an alternative to liver biopsy, offering a painless and non-invasive diagnostic option.
  • Evaluating liver stiffness to predict the severity of liver disease and determine the need for further treatment.

Benefits of Fibroscan:

  • Quick and painless
  • Non-surgical
  • Accurate liver assessment
  • Monitors treatment effectiveness
