FibroScan\u00ae is used for follow-up of fibrosis and steatosis. This single-center study aims to review the distribution of indications by referral to FibroScan\u00ae.\r\nMaterials and Methods: Demographic characteristics, CLD etiologies, and FibroScan\u00ae parameters of the patients who were referred to our tertiary care center between 2013 and 2021 were retrospectively evaluated.\r\nResults: Out of 9345 patients, 4946 (52.93%) were males, and the median age was 48 [18\u201388] years. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) was the most common indication (N=4768, 51.02%), followed by hepatitis B (N=3194, 34.18%) and hepatitis C (N=707, 7.57%).
