Evaluation of liver and spleen stiffness measurement with shear wave elastography in brucellosis

ConclusionsThe study results showed that liver and spleen stiffness were high in acute brucellosis patients and had predictive significance above certain cut-off values. It can be considered that pSWE, which evaluates liver and spleen stiffness in acute brucellosis, may provide diagnostic benefit as a reliable, non-invasive technique.
