Imaging Services

Advanced Liver Imaging offers diagnostic imaging options to meet your needs
Fibroscan

Imaging-based diagnostic test that looks at liver fibrosis (stiffness, scarring) and steatosis (fat) using transient-elastography technology

Shear Wave

Shear wave dispersion imaging is a novel ultrasound-based technique, which analyzes the speed of different shear wave components depending on their frequency

Ultrasound

Ultrasound imaging uses high-frequency sound waves to demonstrate primary modalities such as fatty liver, liver lesions, and blood flow inside the three distinct liver phases

MRI [elastography]

Elastography is a test using high field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to measure the elasticity of internal organs, specifically the liver
