Official title
Innovative Liver Elasticity, Attenuation, and Dispersion Ultrasound Study for Patients With Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The objective of this study is: (1) to investigate the correlation of ultrasound parameters (SW speed, Dispersion slope, Attenuation value, Normalized Local Variance, Liver / Kidney Intensity Ratio) with the pathological parameters (fibrosis, intralobular inflammation, ballooning degeneration and steatosis); (2) to evaluate the diagnostic performance of SW speed for liver fibrosis, Dispersion slope for intralobular inflammation and Attenuation value for steatosis by comparison with the tissue diagnosis by liver biopsy.
