Zusammenfassung

Purpose: To identify the cut-off values of liver stiffness (LS) assessed by SSI for predicting significant fibrosis (F≥2) and liver cirrhosis (F = 4), considering Transient Elastography (TE) as the reference method. Methods: 383 consecutive subjects were evaluated by means of TE and SSI. Reliable TE measurements were defined as: median value of 10LS measurements with a success rate≥60% and an interquartile range interval< 30%, values expressed in kPa. Reliable LS measurements by means of SSI was definied as the median value of 5 LS measurements expressed in kPa. To discriminate between various stages of fibrosis…
