Comparison of Sound Touch Elastography, Shear Wave Elastography and Vibration-Controlled Transient Elastography in Chronic Liver Disease Assessment using Liver Biopsy as the “Reference Standard”

Chronic liver disease (CLD) is currently a major cause of death. Ultrasound elastography (USE) is an imaging method that has been developed for CLD assessment. Our aim in the study described here was to evaluate and compare a new commercial variant of USE, sound touch elastography (STE), with alread...
