Abstract

To assess the degree of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic liver disease has important value for clinical treatment and prognosis.Ultrasound elastography is a new noninvasive assessment of liver fibrosis diagnostic methods.There are mainly three kinds of ultrasound elasticity imaging methods in clinical application,including:real-time tissue elastography,fibroscan,acoustic radiation force impulse imaging.
