Quantitative assessment of liver fibrosis in chronic viral hepatitis C patients using shear wave elastography with elastography point quantification feature

Conclusion The ElastPQ SWE technique appears as a reliable non-invasive tool that can provide an optimal way to monitor liver tissue stiffness in patients with chronic HCV infection with high accuracy (97.6%) in recognition of the earlier fibrosis stage (F2).
