nameLiver fibrosis score in Serum or Plasma Calculated by FibroMeter
descriptionThis term was created for, but is not limited in use to, the FibroMeter Virus package of tests, which is intended as a surrogate marker of liver fibrosis, cirrhosis and necro-inflammatory activity in patients with chronic hepatitis C with or without co-infection with HIV and in active carriers of hepatitis B virus. The fibrosis score ranges from 0 to 1 and is calculated using a proprietary algorithm based on seven lab tests (AST, ALT, GGT, prothrombin index, platelet count, urea, and alpha-2-macroglobulin) plus the patient's age and gender.
