Fibrosis 4 Score Versus Hyaluronic Acid as Non-Invasive Tools for Assessment of HCV-Related Hepatic Fibrosis: Correlation with Quantitative Morphometric Analysis of Liver Biopsy

Abstract

Background & Aims: Unlike the ordinal METAVIR system, morphometry can be used for quantitative assessment of hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related liver fibrosis. However, due to its invasive nature, we tried to study two non-invasive tools for this assessment; namely FIB-4 score and HA level.
