Our Studies

Biomarkers

Innovative translational research uses biomarkers to accelerate or aid in diagnosis or monitoring and provide insight into “personalized” medicine.

A biomarker is a quantifiable biological parameter (such as blood pressure, heart rate, blood and genetic test, and x-rays) that are measured and evaluated over time as an indicator of normal biological, pathogenic, or pharmacologic responses to a therapeutic intervention.

NASH or Fatty Liver Disease

Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, NASH is the most common chronic liver disorder in industrialized countries, affecting around 15% of the US adult population. NASH is a silent disease, because most patients with NASH do not feel any symptoms. This is why many patients do not know they have NASH, until the disease has progressed to very advanced stages. Sometimes patients experience pain in the upper right part of their abdomen. Learn how you can get a no-cost FibroScan to see if you have NASH or Fatty Liver disease.
