Introducing FibroScan – The Noninvasive Ultrasound Test For Liver Disease

Gastroenterology of the Rockies is excited to announce we now offer the FibroScan® technology.

FibroScan® is a noninvasive specialized ultrasound machine that measures fibrosis (scarring) and steatosis (fatty change) in your liver. By sending a pulse of energy to your liver, it gives your medical practitioner information about your liver’s health.

Like other ultrasound exams, FibroScan® is painless, easy, and quick. And, because it’s noninvasive, it doesn’t come with the same risks as an invasive biopsy.

Compared to an invasive Liver Biopsy, the noninvasive FibroScan® offers multiple benefits from an easier preparation to a lower cost. Below is a chart comparing the FibroScan® to a traditional Liver Biopsy:
