Spleen stiffness to liver stiffness ratio significantly differs between ALD and HCV and predicts disease-specific complications

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Both liver stiffness (LS) and spleen stiffness (SS) are widely used to non-invasively assess liver fibrosis and portal hypertension, respectively. We aimed to identify the impact of disease etiology, namely the localization of inflammation (portal vs. lobular), on the SS/LS ra...
