Liver stiffness value obtained with ElastPQ ultrasound increases with NYHA class in chronic heart failure patients and reduced ejection fraction

Liver stiffness value obtained with ElastPQ ultrasound increases with NYHA class in chronic heart failure patients and reduced ejection fraction

Objective: Liver stiffness (LS) values are known to be associated with increased right ventricle (RV) pressure in patients with heart failure (HF). The aim of this study was to determine the changes in LS in patients of different New York Heart Association (NYHA) classes and the parameters related t...
