Understanding Fibroscan Result

I had a Fibroscan in December and have not yet been contacted by the hospital to discuss the result. I managed to get a copy of the results, but I don't understand what they mean. I've tried Google and there is a lot about a Kpa score, but there isn't a Kpa score on my result (there is a KPI).

The results were as follows:

KPI 5.0

IQR 0.6 8%

CAP 313

Score FO/F1

Any help understanding these is appreciated.

Thanks

"Score FO/F1" so regarding fibrosis is normal according to fibroscan. That's most important.

"CAP 313" is about fat. Here I think S3 so pretty high value. I think healthy life style and losing weight is a good idea to improve this.

Please contact your doctor for more detailed/professional information.
