Concordance of transient elastography and shear wave elastography for measurement of liver stiffness

Sonography, 2017
Introduction Transient elastography is commonly utilised in liver clinics as a non‐invasive method of assessing the degree of fibrosis or presence of cirrhosis in the human liver.

Transient Elastography in Pediatric Liver Disease

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, 2021
ABSTRACTTransient elastography is an imaging technique utilizing shear wave technology to measure liver stiffness. Recent studies have shown success in utilizing this technique in children. Transient elastography is useful in estimating degree of fibrosis in various pediatric liver diseases, including biliary atresia, alpha‐1‐antitrypsin deficiency ...

Transient elastography

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2010
AbstractIn clinical practice, it is important to assess the severity of liver fibrosis in patients with various liver diseases to determine the prognosis, decide treatment, and monitor disease progression and response to treatment. Liver biopsy is limited by its invasiveness and patient acceptability.

Transient elastography for the diagnosis of liver fibrosis

Expert Review of Medical Devices, 2010
Transient elastography (FibroScan(®)) is a noninvasive method proposed for the assessment of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic liver diseases by measuring liver stiffness. It can be easily performed at the bedside or in the outpatient clinic with immediate results and good reproducibility.

Repeatability of transient elastography in children

Pediatric Research, 2020
Poorly performing diagnostic tests can impact patient safety. Clinical investigations must have good precision and diagnostic accuracy before widespread use in clinical practice. Transient elastography (TE) measures liver stiffness, a surrogate marker of liver fibrosis in adults and children.

Transient elastography: Applications and limitations

Hepatology Research, 2008
Transient elastgraphy with use of FibroScan is one of most accurate methods for assessment of liver fibrosis. FibroScan can be readily used with an operator with a short training. In many different studies, liver stiffness measured by transient elastgraphy correlates well with fibrosis stages, and cutoff values of liver stiffness for fibrosis staging ...

The role of the coupling term in transient elastography

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2003
The transient radiation of low-frequency elastic waves through isotropic and homogeneous soft media is investigated using the Green’s function approach. A careful analysis of the coupling term is performed and yields the introduction of a very near field region in which its amplitude behaves as 1/r.

Transient elastography in patients with cystic fibrosis

Pediatric Radiology, 2010
Hepatic involvement is frequent in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), with focal biliary cirrhosis being the pathognomonic hepatic manifestation. In around one-quarter of CF patients, it results in CF-associated liver disease (CFLD). This occurs as a relatively early complication with the majority of patients presenting in childhood or their early ...
