Zusammenfassung: | Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease represents a worldwide public health problem, in Latin America a prevalence of around 30% is estimated, however in Peru we do not have large epidemiological studies about this.
To evaluate the frequency of liver steatosis determined by CAP (Controlled Attenuation Parameter) and liver fibrosis by hepatic elastography in a population of patients who participated in a screening campaign.
Descriptive and cross-sectional study. During the period September-December 2019, the ALEH Screening Fibroscan program was carried out in 4 reference hospitals in Lima and Callao. Patients were evaluated with a Fibroscan 530 device with M and XL probes. Those examinations that met the quality parameters were included for the study: 10 valid measurements, IQR |
