OWLiver® & Liposcale® non-invasive tests

OWLiver ® is a blood test carried out under fasting conditions, which measures a panel of biomarkersall of them lipids. Such biomarkers are a reflection of the amount of fat and inflammationin the liver and, hence, allow to determine the degree of severity of metabolic dysfunction-associatedfatty liver disease (MAFLD). All lipids are measured using ultrahigh-performance liquidchromatography and mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS). The relative concentrations of thesebiomarkers are analyzed in an algorithm that generates the OWLiver® final score, which is theprobability of the patient’s liver state approximating to either no-MAFLD or MAFLD.
The Liposcale® test is an advanced lipoprotein test based on nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR). From the analysis of serum or plasma samples by NMR, the concentration of cholesteroland triglycerides of the lipoprotein classes VLDL, IDL, LDL and HDL, the concentration ofparticles of the VLDL, LDL and HDL classes and their subclasses is obtained. ...
