Objectives The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential utility of shear wave
elastography (SWE) for diagnosis of biliary atresia and for differentiating biliary atresia from …

Background Biliary atresia is a rapidly progressive liver disease necessitating prompt
diagnosis and surgical intervention, so it must be promptly distinguished from other …

Purpose. To investigate the diagnostic performance of shear wave elastography (SWE) for
measuring liver stiffness to identify and differentiate biliary atresia (BA) from cholestatic …

Objectives To prospectively assess the diagnostic performance of supersonic shear wave
elastography (SSWE) in identifying biliary atresia (BA) among infants with conjugated …

Background Two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D-SWE) has been proposed for
detecting liver fibrosis in biliary atresia. Objectives To assess the performance of 2D-SWE for …

Objective To prospectively assess the diagnostic performance of ultrasound shear wave
elastography (SWE) and hepatobiliary laboratory biomarkers for discriminating biliary …

Objective This study aimed to evaluate the role of preoperative two-dimensional (2D) shear
wave elastography (SWE) in assessing the stages of liver fibrosis in patients with suspected …

To investigate the utility of liver stiffness measurement by shear wave elastography (SWE)
and several commonly used biomarkers in differentiating biliary atresia (BA) from other …

Background Although fibrosis is the main determinant of liver stiffness, other disease-related
factors usually disregarded in studies on liver elastography, such as inflammation and …

BACKGROUND Timely differentiation of biliary atresia (BA) from other infantile cholestatic
diseases can impact patient outcomes. Additionally, non-invasive staging of fibrosis after …
