USG – LIVER ELASTOGRAPHY is an advanced, non-invasive ultrasound-based imaging technique that evaluates the stiffness or elasticity of liver tissue. Increased liver stiffness may indicate fibrosis, scarring, inflammation, or chronic liver disease.

The procedure uses specialized ultrasound technology to assess how sound waves travel through the liver tissue. The results help doctors estimate the degree of liver fibrosis and monitor conditions such as fatty liver disease, hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, alcohol-related liver disease, and other chronic liver disorders.

Liver elastography is commonly recommended as an alternative or supportive assessment to liver biopsy because it is painless, quick, radiation-free, and does not require surgical intervention. It is also useful for monitoring disease progression and treatment response over time.

This scan helps in early detection and management of liver disease before severe complications develop.

This Test is Recommended for Individuals

• Patients with fatty liver disease
• Individuals with hepatitis or chronic liver disease
• Patients with abnormal liver function test results
• Individuals with suspected liver fibrosis or cirrhosis
• Patients requiring liver disease monitoring and follow-up
• Individuals advised for non-invasive liver assessment
