Non-invasive staging of liver fibrosis by two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D-SWE) in patients with chronic hepatitis C and B

Abstract Background Non-invasive shear wave-based techniques have been developed for estimating liver fibrosis in patients with chronic liver diseases. Two-dimensional shear wave elastography provides in real-time, a tow dimensional quantitative map of tissue stiffness and enables measuring the stif...
