The Non-Invasive Ultrasound-Based Assessment of Liver Viscosity in a Healthy Cohort

The Non-Invasive Ultrasound-Based Assessment of Liver Viscosity in a Healthy Cohort

Liver fibrosis is the most significant prognostic factor in chronic liver disease (CLD). Clinical practice guidelines recommend the use of non-invasive techniques, such as two-dimensional shear-wave elastography (2D-SWE), to assess liver stiffness as a marker of fibrosis. Several other factors influ...
