Abstract-Vorschau
Aims: Measurement of liver stiffness (LS) by transient elastography [Fibroscan (FS)] is a novel non-invasive approach to assess liver fibrosis/cirrhosis. We have previously shown that patients with cardiac inufficiency have drastically increased liver stiffness independent of fibrosis state. We here study whether hemodynamic changes in healthy volunteers (Valsalva and Schellong maneuver) affect liver stiffness. Meth…
