NAFLD Fibrose Score

The NAFLD Fibrosis Score is used to estimate the extent of liver fibrosis in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). This allows the identification of advanced liver fibrosis without the need for a liver biopsy. The score has been developed for patients between 35 and 65 years of age.
