Effect of General Anesthesia on Liver and Spleen Stiffness for Predicting High‐Risk Varices in Biliary Atresia

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
In children with biliary atresia (BA), breath‐holding during liver and spleen stiffness (LS and SS) measurement is often difficult, raising concerns about measurement reliability in the awake state. We investigated whether performing LS and SS measurements under general anesthesia—when brief ventilation pauses are possible—could improve diagnostic ...
