Laboratory Diagnostics - Webinars 

Canada Webinars

In this webinar, the speaker will go over the common etiologies of Chronic Liver Disease and the risk factors that seem to predispose the overwhelming emergence of NAFLD and NASH in recent years.

The main driver of disease progression is Liver Fibrosis, and the talk will address non-invasive tests to measure Liver Fibrosis including the ELF test (Enhanced Liver Fibrosis) that may be used diagnostically for fibrosis staging or prognostically assess the likelihood of progression to cirrhosis and liver related clinical events.

We will also discuss other possible uses of ELF such as in testing algorithms alongside FIB-4 or elastography and international societies clinical practice guidelines and recommendations on the use of ELF.
