Prediction of Esophageal Varices in Viral Hepatitis C Cirrhosis: Performance of Combined Ultrasonography and Clinical Predictors
CONCLUSION: Combining clinical and Doppler ultrasound features can be used as a screening test for predicting the presence of EV in patients with hepatitis C-related cirrhosis. The practical predictors identified in this study could serve as an alternative to invasive EGD in EV diagnosis. Further studies are needed to explore the diagnostic accuracy of additional noninvasive predictors, such as elastography, to improve EV screening.PMID:37746529 | PMC:PMC10516699 | DOI:10.1155/2023/7938732 (Source: International Journal of Biomedical Imaging)
