What is a Ultrasound Liver Elastography Test in Visit Clinic?

What is Ultrasound Liver Elastography?

Ultrasound Liver Elastography is a liver function test that measures the level of a specific enzyme in the blood. When liver cells are healthy, these enzymes stay inside the cells. When the liver is damaged or inflamed , due to infection, alcohol, fatty deposits, or medication , enzymes leak into the bloodstream at elevated levels, which this test detects.

What does Ultrasound Liver Elastography measure?

Ultrasound liver elastography measures how stiff the liver is. Stiffness reflects scarring (fibrosis) or inflammation in liver tissue. The test can also estimate how much fat is in the liver in some types of elastography. Liver enzymes released into the bloodstream correlate with the degree of liver cell damage , mild elevations suggest early fatty liver or medication effects, while very high values indicate acute hepatitis or significant injury. The test uses a blood sample and results are typically available the same day.

What do the results of Ultrasound Liver Elastography mean?

Results are reported in units per litre (U/L) or mg/dL. A result within the reference range indicates the liver is functioning normally. Mild elevations (2 to 3 times normal) are common in fatty liver disease and often reverse with lifestyle changes. Elevations above 10 times normal are considered severe and indicate viral hepatitis, drug-induced injury, or acute liver failure , requiring urgent specialist review.
