Noninvasive prediction of high-risk esophageal varices by spleen and liver stiffness measurements using sound touch elastography
Liver and spleen stiffness measurements obtained through STE are valuable for predicting HREV in cirrhotic patients. The developed prediction models and their corresponding cutoff values provide tailored solutions for various clinical situations, thereby effectively reducing the need for unnecessary endoscopies.
