A Fibro Scanner is a type of ultrasound that is used to assess liver fibrosis in a non-invasive way. The equipment can help to provide a prompt diagnosis, which is especially important as 90% of liver disease is reversible if detected early. This also enables the hepatology team to organise a treatment plan as soon as possible for patients. The Fibroscan procedure is quick and painless, and can also help in emergency situations by providing accurate readings of liver damage in less than 15 minutes.
