Fibrosis scores

Fibrosis scores are measurement tools used by doctors to assess the degree of scarring in the liver, often caused by conditions like hepatitis or fatty liver disease. They combine various tests and factors—such as blood markers, imaging results, and sometimes biopsy data—to estimate how much the liver tissue has become fibrotic or scarred. Higher scores indicate more severe scarring, which can impact liver function and health. These scores help doctors determine the disease stage, guide treatment decisions, and monitor progression or improvement over time.
