Combination of FIB-4 with ultrasound surface nodularity or elastography as predictors of histologic advanced liver fibrosis in chronic liver disease

Abstract Reliable and available non-invasive methods for hepatic fibrosis assessment are important in chronic liver disease (CLD). Our aim was to compare stepwise algorithms combining standard ultrasound with serum markers and transient elastography (TE) for detecting advanced fibrosis (F3-4) and ci...
