New ultrasound tool could catch liver disease before It's too late
NCT ID NCT06387745
First seen May 10, 2026 · Last updated May 10, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a new, non-invasive ultrasound exam called Hepatoscope to screen for liver scarring (fibrosis) and fatty liver in people at risk. About 200 patients with risk factors like diabetes or abnormal liver tests will get the scan. If the scan shows significant stiffness, they will be referred to a liver specialist for further care. The goal is to see if this tool helps find serious liver problems earlier than current methods.
