Non-Invasive Liver Stiffness Test

Alabama rates for HCPCS 91200

This is a quick, painless test that uses gentle vibration and sound wave measurements taken through a handheld device pressed against the skin over the liver to estimate how stiff the liver tissue is. Increased stiffness can be a sign of scarring in the liver, so this test is used to help assess liver health without a surgical biopsy.
