<qa>  What is the first liver assessment?Those interested in taking part will attend an appointment at the hospital after they have had the opportunity to read through the information leaflet. They will be given time to ask any questions they have about the study and have them answered fully. They will then be asked to sign two copies of a consent form in order to take their participation any further. Once this is complete they can have their first liver assessment. The assessment will take approximately 30-45 minutes to complete.
