Metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), previously called nonalcoholic fatty liver
diseases (NAFLD), is one of the most important causes of chronic liver disease worldwide …

The differential diagnosis of lymphadenopathy is important for predicting prognosis, staging,
and monitoring the treatment, especially for cancer patients. Conventional computed …

Liver diseases of various etiologies are becoming increasingly common in the pediatric
population. So far, the gold diagnostic standard in these disorders is liver biopsy. This …

In adults with chronic liver diseases, ultrasound and magnetic resonance shear wave
elastography (SWE) can replace liver biopsy in several clinical scenarios. Several …

Background While liver biopsy remains the gold standard, given the procedure risks and
sampling errors, there is a need for reliable noninvasive biomarkers of hepatic fibrosis …

Featured Application In this review we present and discuss the published literature on the
use of ultrasound-based liver elastography in children. The published data show that all the …

Ultrasound is one of the most important imaging modalities in pediatric imaging because of
its accessibility, portability, lack of ionizing radiation, and ability to generally perform …

The aim of this study was to assess the liver stiffness values in children with obesity versus
healthy children on 2D-SWE and TE taking into account different laboratory parameters. We …
