FIB-4 Liver Fibrosis Calculator is a health and wellness calculator that helps you calculate fib-4 liver fibrosis values from your input data. The formula used is: FIB-4 = (age × AST) ÷ (platelets × √ALT). Enter values using the units shown next to each input field (e.g. kg, cm, years).

Rates and fees change frequently. Always confirm the current figures with the official authority before relying on this result.
  • Screening estimate for fibrosis. Requires physician interpretation and possibly further testing.

Formula

FIB-4 = (age × AST) ÷ (platelets × √ALT)
  • FIB-4 Liver Fibrosis Calculator gives you a fast estimate using your inputs and updates instantly when you change any value.
  • Formula: FIB-4 = (age × AST) ÷ (platelets × √ALT)
  • Input definitions: • Age: the numeric age used in the calculation • AST: the numeric ast used in the calculation • ALT: the numeric alt used in the calculation • Platelet count: the numeric platelet count used in the calculation
  • Manual method: write down each input, apply the formula step by step, then compare your manual result with the calculator output.
  • Enter values using the units shown next to each input field (e.g. kg, cm, years).
  • This calculator uses widely accepted health formulas and returns screening estimates only. It does not replace a diagnosis from a qualified healthcare professional.
  • Compare your result with published reference ranges. Values outside the normal range warrant a conversation with your doctor.
  • Practical tip: test a low, medium, and high scenario to understand sensitivity before making decisions.

Example Calculation

Inputs
  • Age: 50 years
  • AST: 40 U/L
  • ALT: 35 U/L
  • Platelet count: 200 ×10⁹/L

Suppose you enter: Age = 50, AST = 40, ALT = 35, Platelet count = 200. The calculator applies the formula (FIB-4 = (age × AST) ÷ (platelets × √ALT)) and shows all output values below. Change any input field to immediately see how the result changes.
