Strata<30 steatosis less likely; ≥60 more likely; 30–59 indeterminate.

LimitsWhen not to use: as fibrosis staging. · Pitfall: TG in mmol/L without conversion. · Pair with FIB-4 / elastography.

When to use

When to use: metabolic-risk adults when TG, BMI, GGT, and waist are available.

How it works

FLI=(e^y/(1+e^y))×100; y=0.953·ln(TG)+0.139·BMI+0.718·ln(GGT)+0.053·waist−15.745.

Key points

  • 0–100.
  • <30 / ≥60 cutoffs.
  • Next: metabolic workup / FibroScan.

Worked calculation

The values below come from this tool's own example placeholders and are computed server-side with the formula shown on this page, so the arithmetic can be checked quickly. It demonstrates how to substitute values only — it is not clinical advice and not a real case.

  • Band：≥60 — steatosis more likely (rule-in band)
  • TG unit：Use mg/dL (mmol/L × 88.57 ≈ mg/dL)

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does Fatty Liver Index (FLI) upload patient data? Where is it calculated?
Calculation runs locally in the browser; inputs and results are not uploaded. For licensed clinicians only; interpret with history, investigations and local protocols — not a diagnosis or prescription.
How is Fatty Liver Index (FLI) calculated in practice? Can you show a worked example?
Inputs: Triglycerides 150 mg/dL, BMI 28 kg/m², GGT 40 U/L, Waist circumference 95 cm → Result: FLI 64.7 /100（Band: ≥60 — steatosis more likely (rule-in band), TG unit: Use mg/dL (mmol/L × 88.57 ≈ mg/dL)）
