Detection of liver and spleen stiffness in rats with portal hypertension by two-dimensional shear wave elastography
Abstract Background The measurement of liver stiffness (LS) and spleen stiffness (SS) based on ultrasound elastography can be used for non-invasive assessment of portal hypertension (PH). However, there are few studies on the corresponding mechanism of increased spleen stiffness. Our aim was to use...
