Performance of transient elastography for the staging of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B: a meta-analysis.
<h4>Background</h4>Transient elastography (TE), a non-invasive tool that measures liver stiffness, has been evaluated in meta-analyses for effectiveness in assessing liver fibrosis in European populations with chronic hepatitis C (CHC). However, these data cannot be extrapolated to popul...
