Ultrasound Shear Wave Attenuation Imaging for Grading Liver Steatosis in Volunteers and Patients With Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: A Pilot Study

The aims of the work described here were to assess shear wave attenuation (SWA) in volunteers and patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and compare its diagnostic performance with that of shear wave dispersion (SWD), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) proton density fat fraction (PDFF) and biopsy.
