Accuracy of Ultrasound Elastography and Fibrosis-4 Index (FIB-4) in Ruling Out Cirrhosis in Obese Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) Patients
Introduction: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of advanced liver disease in the USA. Liver biopsy, the gold standard diagnostic test for evaluating liver fibrosis, is associated with significant risk and expense. The accuracy of ultrasound elastography and Fibrosis-...
