2-Minute scan could revolutionize liver disease detection for millions
NCT ID NCT05728697
Summary
This study is testing a new, quick ultrasound method to check for liver scarring (fibrosis) in overweight patients with fatty liver disease (NAFLD/NASH). Researchers want to see if this method, done during a routine stomach scope, is more accurate than other non-invasive tests for this patient group. The test adds only 2-3 minutes to the standard procedure and aims to help doctors detect liver problems earlier without a risky biopsy.
