[Summary] => The Medical City, through its Center for Liver Disease Management and Transplantation (Liver Center), is the first in the Philippines to introduce the FibroScan probe — a non-invasive, painless and speedy alternative to biopsies used for assessing fibrosis, or the formation of scar tissue due to injury or long-term inflammation.

[Title] => Real budgetary priorities
[Summary] => GMAs bout with gastro-enteritis, complicated by stress and fatigue brought about by a largely self-imposed punishing pace of work, brings to mind more serious medical afflictions which the government has neglected over the years.
If P1 billion can be appropriated for the fight against insurgency and terrorism, it seems to me that less than a hundred million pesos can be spent for medical facilities which can save lives, particularly those of our impoverished youth who would otherwise die within the first few years after they are born.

[Title] => Boy needs liver transplant
[Summary] => Time is running out for seven-year-old Louie Adrielle Perez, who was born with biliary atresia, a congenital liver disorder that now threatens his life.
Most children in his condition do not reach Louies age, but he showed his strong will to live early on.
"Many people could not believe he would survive this long without an operation. But his doctors are already rushing us. My son needs to undergo liver transplant soon or we might not see him again," his mother, Mary Jean, said.

[Title] => One-year-old girl needs liver transplant
[Summary] => For her one-year-old daughter to live, a mother will risk her own life by donating her liver for her childs much-needed transplant operation.
Lesil Eseque-Artista, 34, still remembers how happy she and her husband Edgar had been when their third and only daughter Maria Luiza, nicknamed "Louie," was born one year ago last week.
"My first two kids are both boys so we were really happy when we learned that the third would be a girl. Even my sons were excited. They wanted to pinch Louie like a toy," she said.
