The evaluation of liver fibrosis is critical, particularly to rule out cirrhosis. Novel non-invasive
tests such as transient ultrasound elastography are widely used to stage liver fibrosis as an …

An important aspect of managing chronic liver disease is assessing for evidence of fibrosis.
Historically, this has been accomplished using liver biopsy, which is an invasive procedure …

Purpose To compare magnetic resonance (MR) elastography and ultrasonographic shear-
wave elastography (SWE shear-wave elastography) for the staging of hepatic fibrosis (HF …

Objectives The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal minimum number of liver
stiffness measurements on shear wave elastography (SWE) and to evaluate the frequency of …

Abstract Background & Aims Although transient elastography (TE) is used to determine liver
stiffness as a surrogate to hepatic fibrosis, the normal range in children is not well defined …

BACKGROUND: Liver stiffness measurement (LSM) using transient elastography is widely
used in the management of patients with chronic liver disease. OBJECTIVES: To examine …

According to the increasing need for accurate staging of hepatic fibrosis, the ultrasound (US)
elastography techniques have evolved significantly over the past two decades. Currently …

Objectives: Adult studies have proven ultrasound elastography as a validated measure of
liver fibrosis. The present study aimed to review the available literature on ultrasound …

Background Transient elastography (TE) using FibroScan with M probe has been widely
used in adults for controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) and liver stiffness measurement …

Introduction The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of shear wave
elastography (SWE), as a non‐invasive means of assessing liver fibrosis stage in paediatric …
