First seen Nov 24, 2025 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 16 times

Summary

This study is testing a new ultrasound method to measure fat and scarring in the liver without needing a needle biopsy. About 225 adults with liver injury will have the ultrasound and their results will be compared to a standard biopsy. The goal is to see if the ultrasound can accurately diagnose liver damage, which could make future testing easier and less invasive.
