Because of the changing lifestyles of people all over the world, with increased consumption of high-calorie, high-fat, and salty foods, along with less physical activity, ๐ผ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐๐ is becoming more common, and diseases such as ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ต๐๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป are also on the rise. ๐๐จ
๐ก๐ผ๐ป-๐ฎ๐น๐ฐ๐ผ๐ต๐ผ๐น๐ถ๐ฐ ๐ณ๐ฎ๐๐๐ ๐น๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฑ๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ (or ๐ก๐๐๐๐) is often associated with these maladies. Fatty liver is usually asymptomatic. However, over time, if left undetected and untreated, there is a relatively high risk of developing ๐น๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฟ๐ต๐ผ๐๐ถ๐ or even ๐น๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฟ. โ ๏ธ
๐๐ซ๐๐ง๐ฌ๐ข๐๐ง๐ญ ๐๐ฅ๐๐ฌ๐ญ๐จ๐ ๐ซ๐๐ฉ๐ก๐ฒ (or Liver Elastography) is a non-invasive medical imaging technique that measures both the fat content and the stiffness, or degree of fibrosis, of the liver. Basing on the results of the liver scan, appropriate preventive measures can be taken, whether the patient needs lifestyle changes alone or requires more urgent medical treatment, to halt or prevent the progression of fatty liver into liver cirrhosis or even liver cancer. ๐
This test is quick, painless, and uses an ultrasound-like probe to send a vibration wave into the liver to determine liver fattiness and stiffness. ๐ง
This test is the first of its kind here in Kidapawan City and in the whole Cotabato Province. It is our sincere hope and intention that we can contribute towards promoting and establishing a ๐ต๐ฒ๐ฎ๐น๐๐ต๐ถ๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐บ๐๐ป๐ถ๐๐. โค๏ธโ๐ฉน๐ช
