Conclusions: LSM from TE, shear wave elastography, and MRE shows acceptable to
outstanding accuracy for the detection of liver fibrosis across various liver disease etiologies …

Liver fibrosis is part of the structural and functional alterations in most chronic liver diseases.
It is one of the main prognostic factors as the amount of fibrosis is correlated with the risk of …

OBJECTIVE. We aimed to assess the diagnostic performance of transient elastography for
evaluating liver fibrosis in children and adolescents. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A …

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

The pathway from clinical suspicion to establishing the diagnosis of biliary atresia in a child
with jaundice is a daunting task. However, investigations available help to point towards the …

Background Neonatal/infantile jaundice is relatively common, and most cases resolve
spontaneously. However, in the setting of unresolved neonatal cholestasis, a prompt and …

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 …

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 A recent retrospective study confirmed that hepatic stiffness and splenic
stiffness measured with magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) are strongly associated …
