These include cleaning the blood, fighting infection and disease, and aiding digestion.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the UK, almost four in ten people are at risk of liver-related health problems. Some of these patients develop scarring (fibrosis) that can often progress to liver failure (cirrhosis), where the liver\u2019s cells stop working as well as they should.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Currently, there are a wide range of single tests for liver disease. These can identify late-stage disease, but they can\u2019t pinpoint early signs or identify patients at risk of more serious outcomes. Three in four people are diagnosed at a late stage when it is too late to make lifestyle changes or interventions that may offer a remedy to the situation. This is one of the UK\u2019s largest health challenges and if this stage is reached, there is often no solution apart from a liver transplant.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Developing software that combines a wide range of tests could help us to come up with much better and earlier answers when it comes to preventing and diagnosing liver disease. This will improve patient care, diagnosis and experience.
