Specialist Liver Fibrosis Scans in Melbourne
For more than 30 years, Direct Endoscopy has been trusted to deliver specialist gastroenterology care across Melbourne. As part of our commitment to accurate diagnosis and early intervention, we provide Liver Fibrosis Scans (FibroScan®) — a modern, non-invasive test that assesses liver scarring and function without the need for biopsy.
Liver disease is a major health concern in Australia, linked to conditions such as hepatitis B and C, fatty liver disease, alcohol or drug-related injury, and autoimmune disorders. Detecting liver scarring early is critical to preventing serious complications and guiding the right treatment plan.
Our experienced gastroenterologists use advanced elastography technology to provide safe, painless, and reliable results in minutes. This allows patients to better understand their liver health while giving doctors the information they need to manage disease effectively.

Clinical Applications of FibroScan®
What are the indications for this test?
A Liver Fibrosis Scan (FibroScan®) is commonly used to measure the extent of liver scarring (fibrosis) and to assess the stage of liver disease. It is particularly valuable for patients with chronic liver conditions such as:
- Hepatitis B or C
- Fatty liver disease (including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease)
- Alcohol-related liver injury
- Autoimmune or drug-induced liver disease
The scan provides a quick, non-invasive way to understand liver health. Results may be used to:
- Assess the degree of existing liver damage
- Monitor disease progression or improvement over time
- Monitor disease progression or improvement over time
Before undergoing a FibroScan, patients require a referral from their GP or treating doctor, who will determine if the test is appropriate.
