Improved Applicability and Diagnostic Accuracy of the Novel Spleen-Dedicated Transient Elastography Device for High-Risk Esophageal Varices
Spleen stiffness measurement (SSM) by transient elastography (TE) has been repeatedly demonstrated as the reliable way to rule out the presence of high-risk esophageal varices (HRV). We aimed to evaluate and compare novel vs. standard TE-SSM module performance in diagnosing HRV in patients with comp...
