This allows interventions to be initiated before more severe functional impairment of the organ occurs. <\/p>\n<p>Another relevant aspect is its use in <a href=\"https:\/\/emfoco.med.br\/endoscopista-dr-daniel-alvarenga\/\">routine consultations with Gastroenterologists<\/a>, especially in <strong>S\u00e3o Paulo (SP)<\/strong>, where the incidence of <strong>liver diseases associated with lifestyle has increased<\/strong>.

This makes it a practical option for patients who need constant monitoring. <\/p>\n<p>Another plus point: it is a <strong>non-invasive procedure<\/strong>. Therefore, there's no need for anesthesia or prior medication during the procedure. No contraindications. And because it's an imaging test, the results of the test are immediately and accurately available to the patient.   <\/p>\n<p>In addition, the test helps to differentiate between early and advanced <strong>liver diseases<\/strong>, providing precise information that guides personalized treatment.<\/p>\n<p>Another important benefit is its use in prevention programs for at-risk populations, such as patients with <strong>diabetes<\/strong>, <strong>obesity<\/strong> or a family history of<strong> liver disease<\/strong>. In these cases, the test can detect alterations at an early stage, helping to start a therapeutic plan before <strong>liver fibrosis<\/strong> progresses. <\/p>\n<p>Elastography also stands out for its excellent cost-benefit ratio. Compared to traditional methods such as liver MRI, it offers effective results at a lower cost and greater availability, especially in <strong>Gastroenterology<\/strong> units <strong>in S\u00e3o Paulo (SP)<\/strong>.

The patient lies on a stretcher and the <a href=\"https:\/\/emfoco.med.br\/drdanielalvarenga\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">specialist<\/a> slides a probe over the abdomen using a gel. <\/p>\n<p>In addition, because it can detect small changes in the structure of liver tissue,<strong> hepatic elastography<\/strong> helps to differentiate between reversible conditions, such as<strong> hepatic steatosis<\/strong>, and more advanced conditions, such as <strong>cirrhosis<\/strong>. This differentiation is essential for the <strong>Gastroenterologist<\/strong> to define the most appropriate therapeutic approach for each stage of the disease. <\/p>\n<p>Another important point is that the test can be safely repeated periodically, which makes it possible to assess the response to treatment and adjust clinical strategies whenever necessary.

The test makes it possible to measure liver stiffness, one of the main indicators of<strong> liver fibrosis<\/strong> - a common complication of these chronic viral infections. <\/p>\n<p>When there is persistent inflammation, the liver tends to form scar tissue, which increases its rigidity. Using hepatic elastography, it is possible to detect these changes early, even before serious symptoms appear. This allows the <strong>Gastroenterologist<\/strong> to establish a more effective treatment plan and monitor the response to medication over time.  <\/p>\n<p>It is important to emphasize that although <strong>elastography<\/strong> indicates the degree of liver stiffness, the definitive diagnosis of <strong>viral hepatitis<\/strong> still depends on laboratory tests, such as <strong>anti-HBs<\/strong> (in the case of hepatitis B) and viral RNA testing (in the case of hepatitis C). These tests identify the presence of the virus and help determine whether the infection is acute, chronic or resolved.   <\/p>\n<p>Another benefit of elastography is that it avoids the need for liver biopsies in many cases. In the past, this was the only way to assess the extent of fibrosis, a more invasive procedure with greater risks and discomfort for the patient.
