What is an Ultrasound?

Ultrasound imaging also referred to as sonography, uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize soft tissues such as internal organs. The images can provide valuable information for diagnosing and treating various diseases and conditions. Abdominal ultrasound imaging is performed to evaluate the kidneys, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, abdominal aorta, and additional blood vessels of the abdomen. Ultrasounds help diagnose various conditions, including abdominal pain or distention, abnormal liver function, enlarged abdominal organ, stones in the gallbladder or kidney, an aneurysm in the aorta, and more. After the exam is complete, the images taken will be analyzed, and a report will be sent to your doctor. Your doctor will then share the results with you.

What is a FibroScan?

FibroScan imaging also referred to as transient elastography, is a non-invasive way to reveal any fibrosis (scarring or stiffness) or fatty deposits within the liver. It is a quick and simple test that works using ultrasound technology. Patients should not eat or drink four hours before undergoing a FibroScan. During FibroScans, patients are instructed to lay on their backs with their right arms raised above their heads. From there, a gel is applied to the skin, and a probe is placed on the right side of the ribcage. On average, a FibroScan will last approximately 15 minutes. Once the exam is complete, the overseeing physician will review the results and help manage any patient's liver health problems.
