New scan aims to replace risky liver biopsies
NCT ID NCT07373769
Summary
This study is testing a new type of ultrasound scan to see if it can accurately measure fat, stiffness, and inflammation in the liver. Researchers will compare the new ultrasound results to standard MRI scans and biopsy reports in 145 volunteers, including healthy people and those with fatty liver disease. The goal is to develop a safer, more accessible, and less expensive way to diagnose and monitor liver disease stages without needing invasive biopsies or costly MRIs.
