FibroScan liver check in Riyadh
Fatty liver is very common and usually silent, but it can progress to inflammation and scarring. FibroScan measures liver fat and the degree of fibrosis in minutes, without pain or needles, and often replaces a biopsy. At DIGEST a hepatologist reads the result and sets a clear plan for improvement and follow-up.
