Hi Joe

You should have information with letter from the hospital on this, but if you put

"fibroscan nhs"

into your browser search you should get good results from NHS sources

It sounds pretty straight forward.

From Guys Hospital:

Quote

A fibroscan is a type of ultrasound that can measure the degree of inflammation in your liver. It is a simple, painless test that uses high frequency sound waves.

unquote.

Best wishes with your results.
