Be sure to check out the latest article from our Medical Writers' Circle: Use of FibroScan® in clinical practice, by Maurizio Bonacini, MD.
FibroScan® is a painless, rapid test (about 15 minutes) which can be
used to classify patients in terms of the severity of their liver
fibrosis, and according to Dr. Kurt J. Isselbacher, former
Editor-in-chief of the New England Journal of Medicine:
“FibroScan® has the potential to revolutionize the care of patients with
chronic liver disease by improving the management of their disease and
lowering the cost of their care.”
