Liver Fibro-Scan with Fat Score CAP or UGAP Score in New Delhi

Liver Fibro-Scan with Fat Score (CAP or UGAP Score) is a diagnostic procedure that helps assess the health and functioning of your liver. It is a specialized form of ultrasound that creates waves that measure the elasticity and stiffness of the liver as they pass through it. This technique is particularly useful in detecting liver conditions such as fibrosis (scarring), fatty liver and cirrhosis. The measurement of the amount of fat in liver cells is known as CAP or UGAP score. Along with the liver fibro-scan, this score can help determine the presence or absence of liver fibrosis.

This scan is advised in patients with fatty liver disease, alcoholic or non-alcoholic liver disease, chronic liver disease such as hepatitis B or C, liver cirrhosis, if the patient is obese or has a chronic health condition like diabetes. Getting tested helps doctors diagnose liver conditions at an early stage, track their progression, and assess the effectiveness of an ongoing treatment for the same.
