FibroScan® Library is an apps which allows you to access all documents, in different languages, about FibroScan®, a totally non invasive medical device dedicated to hepatologists. Here, you will find documents about VCTE Technology, CAPTM (a tool for non invasive assessment and quantification of steatosis), patient information and synthesis of clinical publications. Developed by Echosens, FibroScan® uses its patented technology Vibration Controlled Transient Elastography (VCTETM ) at 50Hz to diagnose and monitor liver diseases. FibroScan® allows to explore a volume at least 100 times larger than a liver biopsy in a rapid, safe, repeatable, and non-operator-dependent way. It quantifies liver stiffness (E) in kPa and ultrasound attenuation (CAPTM) in dB/m, which are effective markers of the quality of the hepatic parenchyma correlated to fibrosis and steatosis, respectively. FibroScan® is clinically validated by more than 360 peer-reviewed publications. It improves liver disease management, increases the patient’s comfort and safety and helps physicians to reduce the number of liver biopsies.
