Identification of Liver Fibrosis Biomarkers

"Patients will be recruited in the study using 2 different approaches. The first is patients who are referred to clinical centers as part of an existing assessment where a decision to perform a liver biopsy has been made (routine biopsy). This decision can be based on standard liver function tests AST, ALT, FIB-4 (performed up to 8 months before biopsy), fibroscan (performed up to 6 months before biopsy) or other factors.~In addition, patients F0-F2 who underwent a biopsy within the last 6 months but at least 1 month ago, can be recalled to join the study. If patients agree to participate in the study, they will be recalled to the site for a blood draw and ultrasound scan."
