October Focus 

October is Liver Cancer Awareness Month, and at LiverScan, we are taking this opportunity to spotlight the role of prevention and early intervention in reducing liver cancer risk.

Liver cancer is often the result of long-term, untreated liver disease—most commonly caused by fatty liver, alcohol-related liver damage, or viral hepatitis. The problem is, these conditions often progress silently, showing no symptoms until advanced stages. That’s why early detection is so important.

Preventing Liver Cancer Through Early Detection

At LiverScan, we provide on-site liver screening using FibroScan®, a hospital-grade ultrasound-based device that measures liver fat and stiffness. The process is entirely non-invasive and takes only 15 minutes per person. Results are given immediately, allowing individuals to understand their risk and take timely action.

For employers, offering these scans is more than just a health benefit—it’s a show of real commitment to wellbeing. It provides staff with access to proactive health information, reduces anxiety around undiagnosed illness, and supports long-term productivity by catching potential issues early.

Liver Cancer Awareness Month

During Liver Cancer Awareness Month, we are encouraging organisations to host workplace screening events and make liver health part of their broader wellness strategy. We also offer downloadable educational materials, staff talks, and digital campaigns to support internal engagement.

Claire Hardie, LiverScan COO, said:

“If you can catch liver damage early, you can often stop it in its tracks. Liver Cancer Awareness Month gives employers the perfect reason to take that step on behalf of their teams.”

If you’d like to take part in this national awareness campaign and give your employees the tools they need to protect their long-term health, now is the time to book your workplace screening.
