Prospective Validation of Intra- and Interobserver Reproducibility of a New Point Shear Wave Elastographic Technique for Assessing Liver Stiffness in Patients with Chronic Liver Disease

摘要

ObjectiveTo assess intra- and inter-observer reproducibility of a new point shear wave elastography technique (pSWE, S-Shearwave, Samsung Medison) and compare its accuracy in assessing liver stiffness (LS) with an established pSWE technique (Virtual Touch Quantification, VTQ).
