Liver Genetics Clinic

The Liver Genetics Clinic at Shaare Zedek Medical Center treats patients that exhibit clinical signs of a non-conventional liver disease (like hepatitis C) and patients that have a family history that can indicate a genetic factor.
Recent years have brought about many significant developments in genetics. These allow us to diagnose more and more diseases in their early stages, even before the disease markers show up in blood work or imaging tests and before the body suffers any irreversible damage.
Knowing there is a clear diagnosis brings great relief to the patient and helps alleviate much of the stress. In addition, the early diagnosis helps us take medical actions that will reduce the damage caused by the disease or even prevent it all together.
The information gathered through genetic investigation is also important for future development of medication.
