Factors Associated with Disagreement of Fibrosis Stages between 2D-Shear Wave Elastography and Transient Elastography in Chronic Hepatitis B.

Introduction And Objectives: The agreement of elastography techniques in chronic Hepatitis B (CHB) needs evaluation. We aimed to evaluate, in CHB, the agreement between transient elastography (TE) and two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D-SWE), analyzing the factors related to the disagreement of measures.

Materials And Methods: CHB patients underwent liver stiffness measures with both TE and 2D-SWE on the same day.
