Staging liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B using two-dimensional shear wave elastography based on histopathological findings: a prospective multicenter study
Abstract:Background: With the rapid development of shear wave elastography technology, the clinical application prospect of two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D SWE) for non-invasive monitoring of liver fibrosis is extremely promising. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of ElastQ, a noval 2D SWE method, in the staging of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B with histopathological results as the reference standard.Methods: Between August 2020 and December 2021, a prospective mu… Show more
