Follow-Up of Liver Stiffness with Shear Wave Elastography in Chronic Hepatitis C Patients in Sustained Virological Response Augments Clinical Risk Assessment

Follow-Up of Liver Stiffness with Shear Wave Elastography in Chronic Hepatitis C Patients in Sustained Virological Response Augments Clinical Risk Assessment

This study aimed to observe the effect of the direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapy on liver stiffness (LS) and serum biomarkers. We prospectively observed 35 patients with chronic hepatitis C infection and attained a sustained virological response (SVR) after antiviral therapy. Shear wave elastogra...
