Surveys, Blood Testing, and Fibroscan in Screening for Liver Fibrosis and Liver Cirrhosis

Patient-Centered Liver Cancer Prevention in the Houston Community Screening for Predictors of Fibrosis and Cirrhosis

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 15 Apr 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This clinical trial studies the use of surveys, blood testing, and fibroscan in screening for liver fibrosis and liver cirrhosis in new or existing patients of the HOPE clinic seeking usual clinical care. Fibroscan is an imaging procedure of the liver which uses a probe like an ultrasound. Information gathered from this study may help researchers learn more about how to prevent or find liver cancer in patients who are currently receiving care at the HOPE clinic. Early detection of liver cancer may improve survival.
