The FNIH Announces Study Results Published in Nature Medicine Showing That Liver Disease Can Be Diagnosed Using Noninvasive Blood Tests

Retrieved on: 
Thursday, September 7, 2023

The research is part of the Biomarkers Consortium’s Noninvasive Biomarkers of Metabolic Liver Disease (NIMBLE) project, a public-private partnership bringing together the FDA, academic researchers, and industry partners to rigorously evaluate blood and imaging tests to measure the presence of liver disease.

Key Points: 
  • The research is part of the Biomarkers Consortium’s Noninvasive Biomarkers of Metabolic Liver Disease (NIMBLE) project, a public-private partnership bringing together the FDA, academic researchers, and industry partners to rigorously evaluate blood and imaging tests to measure the presence of liver disease.
