CHRISTUS Shreveport-Bossier Health System are pleased to announce a groundbreaking partnership with ��������, a leading provider of medical imaging solutions, that gives doctors and patients in north Louisiana access to the latest diagnostic aids to help improve the clinical journey for patients with liver disease.

CHRISTUS Shreveport-Bossier will leverage ��������’s new LiverMultiScan, a non-invasive test that can assess liver health using a comprehensive non-contrast MRI to scan for tissue characterization. 

Though there are numerous types of liver disease, many patients do not show obvious symptoms until the later stages of the disease. If undiagnosed and left untreated, liver disease can lead to liver failure and the need for a transplant – and the risks are higher for patients who may be overweight, or have diabetes or high cholesterol. But, if liver disease is diagnosed early, it may be possible to halt or reverse disease progression. 

“We are pleased to offer ��������’s LiverMultiScan to our patients. It provides a better understanding of their liver health and is a safe and non-invasive alternative to liver biopsy. As liver disorders and other abnormalities become more and more prevalent, it is important our clinicians can diagnose and track the progression of the disease,” said Mike Jones, Director of Outpatient Radiology.  “The potential to diagnose liver disease more easily, and sooner, will have a tremendous impact on our patients and in this community.”
