Methods: We measured SS and LS in 63 patients with cirrhosis at Yashoda Hospitals,
Secunderabad. The diagnostic accuracy of SS for the presence of EVs was compared with …

Background: measurement of spleen stiffness (SS) by ARFI may predict the presence of
EVs. Aim: To assess the correlation of SS measured by ARFI as noninvasive assessment …

Objectives BackgroundThe spleen stiffness (SS) and liver stiffness (LS), evaluated by
Acoustic Radiation Forced Impulse (ARFI), have been related to the risk of varices needing …

Background Acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) imaging is a new non‐invasive,
ultrasound‐based method for the evaluation of liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. Aim To determine …

Aim: To establish the values of spleen stiffness (SS) assessed by Acoustic Radiation Force
Impulse (ARFI) in healthy subjects and in cirrhotic patients, and to evaluate its predictive …

Background Acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) imaging is a new elastography method
for the evaluation of tissue stiffness. This study aims to evaluate the performance of ARFI in …

Background In routine clinical practice, assessment of portal hypertension (PHT) among
patients with liver cirrhosis is done by a upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (UGIE); however …

Background: Acoustic radiation force impulse imaging (ARFI) is a new method of liver
stiffness measurement (LSM). The aim was to compare ARFI, transient elastography (TE) …

Objective The purpose of this study was to assess the value of acoustic radiation force
impulse (ARFI) for evaluating portal hypertension by correlating the elasticity of liver …

BACKGROUND & AIMS: We evaluated whether spleen stiffness (SS), measured by acoustic
radiation force impulse imaging, can identify patients who have esophageal varices (EVs); …
