Nafld Fibrosis Score Calculator
A precise tool.
What is the Nafld Fibrosis Score Calculator & How does it work?
Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is a common condition where excess fat builds up in the liver of people who drink little or no alcohol. NAFLD can range from simple fatty liver to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which can lead to fibrosis and cirrhosis.
The Nafld Fibrosis Score is a tool used to assess the likelihood of advanced fibrosis in patients with NAFLD. It helps healthcare providers make informed decisions about patient management and treatment options.
text{NFS} = frac{(text{Age} – 50) + (text{BMI} – 25) + (text{AST}/text{ALT}) + (text{Platelets}/100,000)}{4}
NFS = Nafld Fibrosis Score
Age = Age of the patient in years
BMI = Body Mass Index
AST/ALT = Ratio of Aspartate Transaminase to Alanine Transaminase
Platelets = Platelet count in cells per microliter
Age = Age of the patient in years
BMI = Body Mass Index
AST/ALT = Ratio of Aspartate Transaminase to Alanine Transaminase
Platelets = Platelet count in cells per microliter
