Hepato-biliary diseases, encompassing conditions affecting the liver, bile ducts, and gallbladder, are among the most common health concerns worldwide. Traditional diagnostic methods, such as liver biopsy, are invasive and carry significant risks. In recent years, advancements in non-invasive diagnostic tools have offered safer, more accurate, and efficient alternatives for diagnosing and monitoring hepato-biliary diseases. This review explores the recent advances in non-invasive diagnostic methods, including imaging techniques, serum biomarkers, and genetic tests, with a focus on their clinical utility, accuracy, and limitations. Additionally, we highlight emerging technologies and their potential to revolutionize hepato-biliary disease management.
