Shear-Wave Elastographic Evaluation of Splenic Stiffness in Patients with Chronic Liver Diseases as A Predictor of the Oesophageal Varices Grade
Background: Chronic Liver disease (CLD) is a global public health problem and one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide with many complications like portal hypertension (PH) and esophageal varices (EV). Researchers have investigated the role of shear-wave elastography (SWE) as a non-invasive...
