Measurement of splenic stiffness by 2D-shear wave elastography in patients with extrahepatic portal vein obstruction

OBJECTIVE: To assess the accuracy of splenic stiffness (SS) measured by 2D-shear wave elastography (SWE) for predicting variceal bleeding in the patients with extrahepatic portal vein obstruction (EHPVO). METHODS: 52 patients with EHPVO (mean age: 22.29 years; 26 each males and females) were include...
