Transient elastography correlated with diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging and cholestatic complications.

CONCLUSIONS: TE and DW-MRI findings showed a similar ability to predict liver fibrosis in cholestatic children. The LSMs measured by TE are predictive of the occurrence of cholestatic complications in 6 months in children with cholestatic liver diseases. PMID: 30621960 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
