What is included in your FibroScan® + UGAP?

This focused liver assessment combines liver stiffness measurement and fatty liver quantification in one appointment.

01

Liver stiffness measurement

FibroScan® estimates how stiff the liver tissue is. Increased stiffness can suggest liver fibrosis or scarring and should be interpreted alongside your history and blood tests.

02

UGAP fatty liver measurement

UGAP helps measure fat content in the liver, supporting fatty liver assessment and monitoring changes over time with lifestyle or clinical management.
