Detailed Liver Examination Using the New FibroScan Technology

The FibroScan device is a convenient, safe, and accurate option for assessing liver health. It is ideal for both screening and continuously monitoring the condition of the liver. Early detection of any issues allows for timely behavioral changes or treatment, thereby reducing the risk of developing serious liver diseases in the future.
The new model of the FibroScan is specifically designed to evaluate and monitor liver health—including assessing liver stiffness and liver fat—with enhanced accuracy and speed. It also meets the standards established in the United States.
Highlighted Features of the New FibroScan Device
1.Liver Stiffness Measurement (LSM):
Utilizes patented VCTE™ (Vibration-Controlled Transient Elastography) technology, proven effective in assessing liver fibrosis.
2.Spleen Stiffness Measurement (SSM):
Aids in evaluating portal hypertension and detecting esophageal varices.
3.Controlled Attenuation Parameter (CAP™):
Used for assessing liver steatosis (fatty liver).
4.Integrated Ultrasound Navigation System:
Enables rapid and accurate localization of the liver and spleen, particularly beneficial for complex cases or patients with obesity.
5.User-Friendly Design:
Features a 19-inch touchscreen, an easily cleanable keyboard, and fast processing speed to enhance examination efficiency.
Who is the FibroScan Examination Suitable For?
The FibroScan examination is ideal for individuals with chronic liver disease, those who consume alcohol, people who regularly take medications that affect the liver, and those who are overweight, among other conditions. It is particularly recommended for:
• Individuals with Fatty Liver (NAFLD/NASH)
• Patients with Alcoholic Liver Disease
• Patients with Hepatitis B or C
• Individuals with Cirrhosis or Those Needing to Monitor Liver Fibrosis
• Anyone Seeking a Liver Health Checkup Without the Need for a Biopsy
Advantages of the FibroScan Device for Liver Examination
The FibroScan device utilizes Vibration-Controlled Transient Elastography (VCTE™) technology, which is specifically designed to accurately assess both liver stiffness and liver steatosis. It offers several outstanding advantages as follows
1.Non-Invasive
- Unlike liver biopsy which involves removing a tissue sample and can be painful and risky—the FibroScan uses special vibration waves to measure liver stiffness without any invasive procedures.
- Reduced Risk of Complications
This method minimizes the risk of complications, such as bleeding or infections.
2.Fast and Accurate Results
- The examination takes only 5-10 minutes, with immediate results available.
- The Liver Stiffness Measurement (LSM) value accurately indicates the level of fibrosis (scarring) or liver stiffness.
- The Controlled Attenuation Parameter (CAP™) directly assesses the presence of fatty liver.

3.Easy Monitoring of Liver Condition
- It enables continuous monitoring of chronic liver diseases such as liver cirrhosis, viral hepatitis, fatty liver (NAFLD/NASH), insulin resistance, etc.
- It is ideal for patients who need to track disease progression without undergoing repeated liver biopsies.
4.Effective for Obese Patients
- The new FibroScan models, such as the FibroScan 630 Expert, support S (Small), M (Medium), and XL (Extra Large) probes, enabling accurate assessments even in patients with a high BMI without compromising precision.
5.Long-Term Cost Reduction
- Using FibroScan may reduce the need for costly liver biopsies, which often require hospital stays.
- It can be employed for screening high-risk groups—such as diabetic patients, regular alcohol consumers, or individuals who are overweight—to detect and prevent liver disease at an early stage.
With these comprehensive features, the new FibroScan device is a valuable tool that enables physicians to assess and monitor the health of both the liver and spleen, facilitating effective and accurate diagnosis and management of liver diseases.
