Diagnostic and Clinical Implications of High Spleen‐To‐Liver Stiffness Ratio in <scp>MASH</scp> —A Prospective, Comparative Study
This study demonstrates that SSM/LSM ratios vary across different liver disease aetiologies. Since MASH patients-after adjusting for liver disease severity-show higher SSM/LSM ratios and larger spleen diameters than ALD, our results support the concept of a presinusoidal component of PH in MASH patients.
