High reproducibility of spleen stiffness measurement by vibration‐controlled transient elastography with a spleen‐dedicated module
Abstract Spleen stiffness measurement (SSM) by vibration‐controlled transient elastography (VCTE) is a noninvasive technique for estimating portal hypertension in patients with chronic liver disease (CLD), with its reproducibility yet to be established and its feasibility still unknown beyond CLD.
