With increasing prevalence, Metabolic Dysfunction Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease worldwide and a growing public health concern. It is a silent condition that can progress from steatohepatitis into fibrosis, and eventually cirrhosis – a major factor for liver transplants and mortality.
Canon’s liver analysis package offers proven methods for multiparametric screening, assessment and staging of liver disease. Within minutes, you can obtain a comprehensive liver status during a routine examination, establish a diagnosis for your patient and potentially reduce time-consuming and invasive biopsies.
Rapid diagnoses
as part of
a routine exam
Aplio’s Liver Package can help you streamline your hepatology workflow. When clinically required, additional imaging tests are quickly carried out as part of your routine exam and the quantitative results are readily available for integrated treatment planning.
Reliable applications,
extensively clinically
published
In various independent peer-reviewed publications, physicians have reported the usefulness and reliability of parametric liver imaging for staging diffuse liver disease, including quantification of liver fat and quantitative assessment of parenchymal viscoelasticity.
Clear documentation

decision support
Canon’s intuitive Multi Parametric Report summarises all results of a liver exam, including external values. While a colour bar or spider graph displays easy-to-understand information, the trend graph provides quick feedback on the progression of measurement results.
These courses have been developed to give ultrasound users an intensive primer in using quantitative chronic liver disease diagnostic functions.
This is a unique opportunity to learn with Marilyn Zelesco (Fiona Stanley Hospital) and Dr. Todd Erpelding.
Validated by Fiona Stanley Hospital and now the global iLEAD study, Attenuation Imaging (ATI) is proven effective for the grading of steatosis. The study evaluated quantitative ultrasound imaging tools against liver biopsy across diverse patient populations, and attenuation coefficient was found to be a robust and reliable imaging marker for assessing steatosis.
A host of non-invasive tools are available for clinicians to assist in the assessment and quantification of the full spectrum of liver disease, providing easy-to-understand clinical reports and guidance in both visual and quantitative formats.
The earliest possible detection and characterisation of diffuse liver disease is important for determining a prognosis and, particularly in case of early, reversible stages, for an effective, closely monitored therapy. Canon offers a seamless package that is directly applicable in your clinical routine.
With just a few clicks, Canon’s comprehensive Liver Package allows you to capture a comprehensive status in minutes, providing robust measurement results that can support a reliable diagnosis. Summarised in a concise report, the readings may allow clinicians to make fast assessments and treatment decisions and support regular patient follow-up.
As much as we at Canon strive to provide high quality imaging and quantitative measurement techniques, it is important to us that the results are available quickly and easily. That’s why we work with our users to develop innovative operating concepts and workflow automation solutions, that can allow you to achieve comprehensive, consistent results in less time.
