Diagnostic performance on multiple parameters of real-time ultrasound shear wave elastography for evaluating nonalcoholic fatty liver disease: A rabbit model.

CONCLUSIONS: Real-time US-SWE is an accurate, noninvasive technique for evaluating the histological stages of NAFLD by measuring liver stiffness. We recommend using the mean elastic modulus to differentiate the histological stages, with the minimum and maximum elastic modulus as valuable complements.
