Advanced FibroScan & Liver Health Assessments

A FibroScan measures liver stiffness and fat content from outside the body, much like an ultrasound, so there is no biopsy. Hill Country Primary Care does the scan at its New Braunfels office. It takes a few minutes, and the results come back soon after.
