Transient elastography
Transient elastography known by the brandname FibroScan is a non-invasive test to quantify liver fibrosis. It also detects and quantifies steatosis simultaneously using the Controlled Attenuation Parameter (CAP). It is a type of transient elastography.
== Technology ==
Transient elastography has been validated by studies. The French company Echosens created transient elastography as a product of French government-funded research. Echosens received approval from Health Canada for transient elastography and its 3 probes in September 2009.〔http://www.myliverexam.com/en/lexamen-fibroscan.html〕 The full exam requires for the operator to obtain 10 measurements of stiffness (in kPa) from the patient by pressing a probe in between the ribs. From the ten results, the median number is obtained and compared with the designated values on the FibroScan Scoring Card. The scoring card results range from 1.5 kPa to 75 kPa. Between 90–95% of healthy people without liver disease will have a liver scarring measurement less than 7.0 kPa (median is 5.3 kPa).〔http://hepatitiscnewdrugresearch.com/fibroscan-results-the-scoring-card.html〕
