Technology Insight: noninvasive assessment of liver fibrosis by biochemical scores and elastography

Nature Clinical Practice Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 2008
Although histopathological analysis of liver tissue is still the reference standard for the evaluation of disease progression in patients with chronic liver disease, a distinct change in clinical practice is occurring. The tendency to substitute histopathological analysis of liver biopsies with complex, surrogate 'noninvasive' measures of disease ...

Liver elastography-based risk score for predicting hepatocellular carcinoma risk

JNCI: Journal of the National Cancer Institute
Abstract Background Liver stiffness measurement (LSM) via vibration-controlled transient elastography accurately assesses fibrosis. We aimed to develop a universal risk score for predicting hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development in patients with chronic hepatitis.

Correlation between Histopathological Diagnosis and Real-Time Tissue Elastography Scores.

Cancer Research, 2009
Abstract Background“Hardness” is important characteristics of carcinoma. Recent invention of Real-time Tissue Elastography (EG) has made scaling the hardness possible. At 31st SABCS, we reported that B-mode ultrasound(US)+mammography(MMG)+EG demonstrated high sensitivity even for the malignancy of the mass-forming lesions of 1.1 cm or ...

Quantification of Liver Stiffness Using Magnetic Resonance Elastography in Comparison with Transient Elastography and Noninvasive Fibrosis Score in Fatty Liver

Journal of the Association of Physicians of India
Background: The global incidence of fatty liver (FL) [alcoholic and nonalcoholic FL disease (NAFLD)] is increasing. Imaging-based elastography techniques, being noninvasive, may eliminate the need for more invasive techniques for the diagnosis and staging of liver fibrosis in FL disease.

Shear wave elastography correlates with liver fibrosis scores in pediatric patients with liver disease

Pediatric Radiology, 2019
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.Determine the accuracy of two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2-D SWE) in predicting the histological severity of liver fibrosis in pediatric patients with known or suspected liver ...

Prognostic relevance of ARFI elastography in comparison to liver histology and the FIB-4 score

Ultraschall in der Medizin - European Journal of Ultrasound
Abstract Purpose Liver histology has prognostic relevance and is used in surveillance and therapeutic strategies. This longitudinal study was designed to evaluate the prognostic relevance of ARFI elastography in comparison to liver histology and to the FIB-4 score in a 5-year observation interval.
