Comprehensive Screening for Early Detection and Prevention
Your liver works nonstop to carry out hundreds of important tasks that help keep your body running smoothly. It detoxifies your blood, produces crucial proteins, aids digestion, stores energy, and helps regulate your immune system.
Because your liver is so important, taking care of it is crucial. Unfortunately, liver problems often go unnoticed until they’ve already progressed.
At King’s Liver Transplant centre of Excellence, prevention and early detection are key to preserving liver health. That’s why we offer comprehensive liver checkup package options to provide a clear picture of your liver’s condition.
Our advanced medical infrastructure, combined with a highly experienced multidisciplinary team, delivers comprehensive care ranging from early diagnosis to complex treatments such as liver transplantation.
Why is a regular liver checkup crucial?
In today’s fast-paced world, factors like unhealthy diets, sedentary lifestyles, alcohol consumption, and viral infections can silently impact liver health. Conditions such as fatty liver disease (NAFLD/NASH), hepatitis, and liver cirrhosis often develop without noticeable symptoms in their early stages.
When symptoms appear (like jaundice, severe fatigue, or swelling), the disease may already be advanced. A regular liver checkup package allows for:
Early detection: It is critical to identify potential liver problems before they become severe, as many liver conditions are reversible or manageable in their early phases.
Risk assessment: Understanding your personal risk factors for liver disease and taking proactive steps to mitigate them.
Monitoring existing conditions: For those with known liver issues, regular checkups are vital for monitoring disease progression and treatment effectiveness.
Peace of mind: Gaining reassurance about one of your most vital organs.
Our comprehensive liver checkup package
Essential liver checkup package price – AED 1,800 (Normal price AED 5,000)
Our liver checkup package at King’s Liver Transplant centre of Excellence is meticulously designed to assess your liver health thoroughly. The specific tests and consultations are tailored to give a holistic view and may include:
Consultation with a leading hepatologist: You’ll have a thorough conversation with our liver experts to go over your health history, daily habits, and any symptoms you’re experiencing.
Comprehensive blood tests: Liver function tests (LFTs): To assess liver enzymes (ALT, AST, ALP, GGT), bilirubin, and albumin levels, indicating how well your liver functions and if there’s any inflammation or damage.
Viral hepatitis screening: Tests for Hepatitis A, B, and C to identify current or past infections that can lead to chronic liver disease.
Complete blood count (FBC): To check for anaemia or other blood abnormalities.
Kidney function tests: These tests assess kidney health, as liver and kidney functions are often interconnected.
Lipid profile & glucose levels: To check for metabolic conditions like fatty liver disease, diabetes, and high cholesterol.
Advanced imaging studies: Abdominal ultrasound: A non-invasive imaging technique to visualise the liver size, shape, and texture and detect any fatty infiltration, cysts, tumours, or gallstones.
FibroScan (Transient elastography): A specialised, non-invasive ultrasound that measures liver stiffness, which is directly correlated with the degree of liver fibrosis (scarring) and cirrhosis. This is a crucial tool for early detection of liver damage.
Detailed report and action plan: You will receive a comprehensive report of all findings, and our hepatologist will provide personalised recommendations and an action plan, which may include lifestyle modifications, further investigations, or treatment if necessary.

The right screening schedule for you will be based on your liver’s health and any risk factors you may have.
For generally healthy individuals, an annual or biennial checkup may be sufficient. Your hepatologist will recommend a more frequent monitoring schedule if you have known risk factors or a pre-existing liver condition.
While a routine ultrasound shows the liver’s size and structure, FibroScan explicitly measures liver stiffness. This stiffness is directly linked to the amount of fibrosis (scarring) in the liver. It’s a key non-invasive tool to assess for and monitor the progression of conditions like fatty liver disease and cirrhosis.
