Formula & Mathematical Methodology: FIB-4 Liver Fibrosis Index Formula

FIB-4 = Ageyears × ASTULPlatelets10⁹L × ALTUL
FIB-4 = (Age_years × AST_U_L) / (Platelets_10⁹_L × √(ALT_U_L))
  • patientAgeYears: Patient Age Years (years)
  • astLevelUL: Ast Level U L (U/L)
  • altLevelUL: Alt Level U L (U/L)
  • plateletCount10e9L: Platelet Count10e9 L (×10⁹/L)

Rounding: Clinical scores round to statutory integer or decimal precision; physiological metrics round to 2 decimal places.

Worked Example: Clinical / Physiology Scenario: FIB-4 Liver Fibrosis Index

Calculate FIB-4 = (Age × AST) / (Platelets_10⁹/L × √ALT) and APRI score.

  1. Enter lab values, anthropometric measurements, or performance test metrics.
  2. Evaluate the reference equation: FIB-4 = (Age_years × AST_U_L) / (Platelets_10⁹_L × √(ALT_U_L)).
  3. Inspect the primary classification, supporting indices, and 3 SVG charts.
Result: Computes FIB-4 Liver Fibrosis Index via FIB-4 = (Age_years × AST_U_L) / (Platelets_10⁹_L × √(ALT_U_L)).

FIB-4 (Fibrosis-4 Index) Non-Invasive Liver Fibrosis Score Calculator: inputs, method, and how to read the result

Calculate FIB-4 = (Age × AST) / (Platelets_10⁹/L × √ALT) and APRI score.

Choose inputs for the case you are checking

The defaults are illustrative. Replace them with values for your case and keep the units shown beside each field.

  • Patient Age Years: Patient age in years.
  • Ast Level U L: Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) in U/L.
  • Alt Level U L: Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) in U/L.
  • Platelet Count10e9 L: Platelet count in ×10⁹/L (or ×10³/μL; e.g., 185 for 185,000/μL).

What the calculation includes

With the default values shown, FIB-4 Liver Fibrosis Index is 1.84 index. The calculation follows FIB-4 Liver Fibrosis Index Formula; the formula and variable definitions above show how the inputs combine.

One-input check: With the other defaults held constant, changing Patient Age Years from 52 years to 57 years changes FIB-4 Liver Fibrosis Index from 1.84 index to 2.01 index. This is a comparison inside the calculator's stated model, not a prediction.

Where to use caution

  • Uses peer-reviewed clinical and sports physiology formulas.
  • For educational and informational reference only; clinical scores do not replace physician judgment or laboratory reference ranges.

Scope: Global Clinical & Sports Science Consensus Check the assumptions and limitations against your situation before relying on the estimate.
