Liver tissue alterations other than fibrosis may have an impact on liver stiffness
measurement. In this study we evaluated 18 patients without a previous clinical history of …

Liver stiffness was measured by transient elastography (FibroScan®) in 228 consecutive
patients with chronic viral hepatitis, with (115) or without cirrhosis (113), to study its …

Abstract Transient elastography [FibroScan (FS)] is a rapid, noninvasive, and reproducible
method for measuring liver stiffness, which correlates with the degree of liver fibrosis in …

Background Many studies have reported the efficiency of transient elastography, a
noninvasive, reproducible, and reliable method for predicting liver fibrosis, in patients with …

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Hepatic elastography (HE) is a noninvasive technique that
measures liver stiffness and is used to diagnose hepatic fibrosis. It can help patients who are …

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Liver stiffness measurement by transient elastography is a very
promising non-invasive method for the diagnosis of fibrosis in chronic liver diseases …

Background and aims: Transient elastography is increasingly being used in patients with
chronic liver disease. It has proven particularly useful to identify patients with advanced …

Background & Aims Transient elastometry is a noninvasive procedure used to measure
fibrosis when patients are diagnosed with liver disease; it might be used to monitor changes …

Abstract Background and Aims: The proposed cut‐off values for the degree of fibrosis as
assessed by liver stiffness measurement (LSM) might not be applicable in severe acute …

AIM: To investigate the usefulness of transient elastography by Fibroscan (FS), a rapid non-
invasive technique to evaluate liver fibrosis, in the management of chronic hepatitis B virus …
