What is a FibroScan?

A FibroScan is a non-invasive medical test that assesses the stiffness of the liver. It works by emitting low-frequency sound waves through the liver to measure its elasticity. This measurement can help detect the presence and severity of liver fibrosis (scarring) and cirrhosis. Unlike traditional biopsy methods, a FibroScan is painless, quick, and reliable, making it an excellent tool for diagnosing and monitoring liver diseases.

Why Should You Consider a FibroScan?

If you are at risk for liver disease or have been diagnosed with conditions like chronic liver disease, viral hepatitis, fatty liver disease, or have undergone a liver transplant, a FibroScan can provide essential insights into your liver's health. This test is particularly useful for ongoing monitoring, helping you and your healthcare provider make informed decisions about your treatment and care.

Benefits of FibroScan

  • Non-invasive: No need for surgical procedures or needles.
  • Painless: Experience a comfortable procedure without discomfort.
  • Quick and Reliable: Get results in minutes without the need for lengthy recovery times.
  • Effective Monitoring: Ideal for regularly checking the health of your liver.

How to Prepare for a FibroScan

For accurate results, it is recommended to fast for at least four hours before the test. Your doctor will provide any additional instructions specific to your condition.
