- Dr. Narayan Dharel, a physician with Gastroenterology Associates of Fredericksburg, explains how FibroScan® at Mary Washington Healthcare can deliver a non-invasive, painless assessment to diagnose liver disease rather than having the patient endure surgery.
Dr. Narayan Dharel is an excellent Gastroenterologist
Thank you for the comments. While a normal fibroscan scores can vary depending on the cause of the liver ailments, in general a fibrosis score (E) of less than 7kPa is Normal in most cases. If E score is greater than 7.5 kPa, then consultation with a gastroenterologist or hepatologist is recommended for further assessment. Lower is better.
Thanks for the good tips

Is Liver Elastography and Fibroscan the same things?
How many points is good for the Liver please tell me
Mines came out to 268 7.8
Fatty liver grade 2 with fibroscan of 7 ..can stiffness be reversed..
Possibly. Go VEGAN. Lots of green veggies. No sugar, flour, grains, red meats. Try Intermittant Fasting. Reduce amount of fruit sugars too. (I am not a doctor. Just thinking this might help. Go see a liver specialist )
Did it reverse ? Do you drink alcohol?
Yes with super clean low carb veg diet
Can you please refer this doctor about my fibrosis score?

Seems you could have significant (at least stage 2) fibrosis along with fatty liver, you should consult with a gastroenterologist for further assessment and management. Thanks.
