There are a few ways to ask how a person is:
מה נשמע? what shall we hear (about you)
מה קורה? - what's going on
מה המצב? how's the situation
מה העניינים? - how are things
מה שלומך? - how are you (in terms of health) This is close to: איך את/ה מרגיש/ה? - how are you feeling
איך הולך? - how's it going
מה נסגר אתך? - what's the deal with you
איך את/ה? - how are you (literally)
מה אתך? - what's with you

"What's up" and other informal greetings are all interchangeable (ma nishma, ma koreh, etc') when you meet friends, but if your friend was sick and you want to know how they are feeling you would ask מה שלומך.
