FibroScan: Painless, accurate, non-invasive Liver Health Assessment
At Om Primary Care, we are committed to providing advanced, preventive healthcare solutions that help detect conditions early and guide effective treatment. Our FibroScan testing service is a modern, non-invasive way to evaluate liver health with accuracy and comfort.
Liver diseases often develop silently, without noticeable symptoms in the early stages. Conditions such as fatty liver disease, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), and liver fibrosis are increasingly common, especially in individuals with diabetes, obesity, or metabolic disorders. Early detection plays a crucial role in preventing complications and improving long-term health outcomes.
What is FibroScan?
FibroScan is an FDA-approved, non-invasive diagnostic test that measures liver stiffness and fat accumulation. Unlike traditional liver biopsy procedures, FibroScan does not involve needles, incisions, or downtime.
It is a safe, quick, and reliable method that helps physicians assess liver conditions such as:
- Fatty liver disease
- Liver fibrosis (scarring)
- Cirrhosis
- Liver inflammation
This advanced technology allows our healthcare providers at Om Primary Care to make informed decisions about your liver health without causing discomfort.
Who Should Get a FibroScan?
How FibroScan Works
Patient Positioning
You will lie comfortably on an examination table with your right arm placed above your head to allow easy access to the liver area.
Application of Gel
A water-based gel is applied to the skin on the right side of your ribcage. This helps the probe make proper contact and ensures accurate readings.
Placement of FibroScan Probe
The healthcare provider gently places the FibroScan probe over the liver area. The device is similar to an ultrasound probe.
Instant Results
The results are generated immediately and are interpreted by the doctor to assess liver health and detect any abnormalities.
Benefits of FibroScan
Non-Invasive Liver Assessment
FibroScan provides a completely non-invasive way to assess liver steatosis (fat accumulation) and fibrosis. It plays a crucial role in both diagnosis and ongoing monitoring of liver health without the need for painful procedures.
Cost-Effective Diagnosis
It is a highly cost-effective diagnostic solution, especially useful at the point of care for identifying advanced fibrosis or cirrhosis early.
Insurance-Friendly Option
FibroScan is widely covered under commercial insurance plans as well as government healthcare programs, making it accessible for many patients.
Improves Diagnostic Efficiency
This advanced technology helps streamline the diagnostic process, allowing doctors to make faster and more accurate clinical decisions and referrals.
Reduces Need for Biopsy
FibroScan significantly reduces the need for invasive, expensive, and uncomfortable procedures like liver biopsy.
Better Patient Identification & Monitoring
It helps doctors efficiently identify and monitor patients who may benefit from clinical treatments, medications, or emerging therapies.
