That's good news. I had to travel to a French hospital in South East Asia for a fibroscan in 2011. Hope it's coming to Southern California soon.

Now only if they can bring the HBsAg test here too.

confirmed ucsd has MRE and something else called Acoustic Radiation Forced Impulse which has something to do with ultrasound.  Read about it on page 2 of this form: http://gastro.ucsd.edu/fatty-liver/research/Documents/InfrmdConsnt_2011_12_6_C1.pdf

It is said that UCSD - San Diego has an MRE machine. Which is same thing but only MRI based. But I was not able to confirm it.
