Liver Cirrhosis | Dr. Kaiser Raja | King’s College Hospital London Dubai
The liver is a vital organ that supports many important functions in the body. Cirrhosis develops when continuous liver damage leads to scarring, making the liver harder and affecting its normal function.
Common causes include:
• Long-term alcohol consumption
• Fatty liver linked to obesity or diabetes
• Hepatitis B and C infections
• High levels of iron or copper in the body
Early diagnosis can help prevent further liver damage. A liver elastography scan, also called a FibroScan, is a quick and painless test that measures liver stiffness in just a few minutes. This helps doctors assess liver health and recommend the most suitable treatment plan.
