The liver is one of the most important organs in the human body. It plays a crucial role in detoxification, metabolism, digestion, and nutrient storage. Despite its importance, liver disease often develops silently, with minimal or no symptoms in the early stages. By the time symptoms appear, significant damage may have already occurred.

Comprehensive liver screening combines blood investigations with non-invasive imaging technology to assess both liver function and structural health.
A key component of this assessment is the FibroScan®, a specialized, non-invasive scan that measures liver stiffness and fat content.
FibroScan® is the gold standard solution for comprehensive management of liver health. It is a quick and safe specialised ultrasound-based technology that measures the stiffness of the liver. This measurement helps in determining the degree of scarring (fibrosis) present in the liver, which is important for diagnosing and monitoring liver diseases.
|
| Ultrasound probe placement: You will lie on your back, and a probe is placed on the right side of your abdomen over the liver area. |
|
| Pulse vibration: The probe emits a low-frequency vibration (a mechanical pulse) into the liver. |
|
| Ultrasound wave: This vibration generates an elastic shear wave that travels through the liver tissue. |
|
| Wave speed measurement: The device measures how fast the wave moves through the liver. The faster the wave, the stiffer the liver — indicating more fibrosis or scarring. |
