Core Tip Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is becoming a major public health issue worldwide. Currently, biopsy is the gold standard for the diagnosis of NAFLD, but it has well-known limitations including sampling errors and severe complications. Thus, noninvasive methods are best alterations to avoid the biopsy. Herein, the noninvasive methods currently available for the assessment of NAFLD in adults are discussed, and we further evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of different assessing tools. In addition, we also analyze the potential of noninvasive biomarkers and their application for tracking NAFLD progression and monitoring the treatment response.
