Comparison of Two-Dimensional Shear Wave Elastography and Real-Time Tissue Elastography for Assessing Liver Fibrosis in Chronic Hepatitis B

Abstract: Background: Noninvasive assessment of liver fibrosis has important clinical significance. Different techniques including two-dimensional shear-wave elastography (2D SWE) and real-time tissue elastography (RTE) are reported to be useful for the noninvasive diagnosis of hepatic fibrosis. All these techniques are affected by many factors. How to choose a reasonable method needs further studies. Purpose: This study was conducted to comparatively assess the diagnostic performance of 2D SWE and RTE in patients with … Show more

“…While comparing with SWE, the probe location of TE is the only factor determined by the operator. The results of our study are similar to a previous study on the elastography assessment of liver fibrosis comparing SWE and TE of CHB patients [14,15]. The cut-off value of SWE for identifying significant fibrosis (F>2) in our treatment-naive CHB patients showed 9.05 kPa, which is higher than the reported study [13][14][15], while the mean liver stiffness determined with SWE in the cohort of participants with healthy livers was 5.…”

“…Now, SWE has proven to be one of reliable methods of liver stiffness for chronic liver diseases [8][9][10][11][12]. There are also few studies about SWE in the assessment of liver fibrosis with histologic confirmation for treatment-naïve CHB patients compared with other non-invasive methods [13][14][15]. But there have been no published studies evaluating independent factor of SWE compared with TE in patients with CHB infection.…”

“…After excluding non-original researches, studies not in the field of interest, non-English studies, etc., 27 full-text articles were downloaded for careful screening. Finally, eleven eligible studies with 2623 patients were included for narrative synthesis [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37] and 9 studies including 1977 patients were selected for meta-analysis [28][29][30][31][32][34][35][36][37]. Table 1 summarizes the basic characteristics of the included studies.…”

“…Table 1 summarizes the basic characteristics of the included studies. Most studies were from China [27][28][29][30][31][33][34][35][36][37], while only 1 study came from Korea [32]. There were six prospective studies [27,30,33,[35][36][37] and 5 retrospective studies [28,29,31,32,34].…”
