Tests that measure FIB 4 Index

Comprehensive Metabolic Panel with FIB-4 Index with Reflex to ELF Score

Laboratory
Quest Diagnostics
Test code
12736
Specimen
Serum
Fasting
Not stated as required

What the laboratory says this test is for

This reflex provides a cost-effective, medically justified, and guideline supported approach to evaluating a patient at risk of NAFLD with liver fibrosis. If the FIB-4 index is ≥1.30, the ELF score is performed.

Liver Fibrosis Fibrosis-4 FIB-4 Index Panel

Laboratory
Quest Diagnostics
Test code
30555
Specimen
Serum
Fasting
Not stated as required

What the laboratory says this test is for

The FIB-4 index is a simple non-invasive approach using selected laboratory measures (AST, ALT, platelet count) in combination with patient age to assess if an individual is at higher risk for advanced liver fibrosis (F3-F4).
