Role of liver transient elastography in detecting cirrhosis with esophageal and gastric varices and evaluating variceal severity

Abstract Objective To explore the application and clinical value of liver transient elastography (TE) in diagnosing and assessing the degree of liver cirrhosis combined with esophageal and gastric varices (EGV). Methods We chose 136 patients with cirrhosis and EGV admitted to the Liver Disease Depar...
