NON-INVASIVE DIAGNOSTIC APPROACHES IN METABOLIC-RELATED STEATOHEPATITIS
Keywords:
metabolic-related steatohepatitis, metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease, non-invasive tests.Abstract
This thesis reviews a pragmatic framework for non-invasive diagnosis in metabolic-related steatohepatitis, focusing on test selection, sequencing, interpretation pitfalls, and pathway implementation across primary care and specialist settings.
