Non-invasive laboratory, imaging and elastography markers in predicting varices with high risk of bleeding in cirrhotic patients
Introduction. Upper digestive tract endoscopy remains the gold-standard for detecting esophageal or gastric varices and assessment of bleeding risk, but this method is invasive. The aim of the study was to identify non-invasive factors that could be incorporated into an algorithm for estimating the...
