Normal values of combinational elastography in adult liver: the influence of age

ConclusionIn adult liver, the normal Vs of SWM was 1.10 ± 0.17 m/s, and the normal LF index of RTE was 1.371 ± 0.458. The LF index increased significantly with age in contrast to Vs; therefore, the influence of age should be considered when using combinational elastography.
