Fibro Scan of Liver
Fibro Scan is a non-invasive liver test used to measure liver stiffness and fat content.
FibroScan is an advanced, non-invasive diagnostic test used to assess liver health by measuring liver stiffness and fat content. This painless procedure is based on ultrasound technology and provides accurate results within minutes, without the need for needles or surgery. FibroScan helps in the early detection of liver fibrosis, fatty liver disease, and cirrhosis, enabling timely medical intervention. The test procedure is quick and comfortable, usually completed within 5–10 minutes. The patient lies on a bed while a trained specialist places a small probe on the abdomen to send mild vibrations toward the liver. These vibrations help determine the stiffness of the liver tissue, and the results are generated instantly for doctor evaluation. FibroScan is completely safe and has no known side effects. It is considered a reliable alternative to liver biopsy, as it involves no pain, no risk of bleeding, and no recovery time. Patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the test.
