Quantification of ultrasound imaging in the staging of hepatic fibrosis

Abstract

GQL has allowed a classification, which is well concordant with the ultrasound elastography data. The use of the GQL may also be developed within centers, which are not provided with ultrasound elastography techniques, when an ultrasound elastography examination cannot be performed due to technical problems and as a support to elastography, if the outcome of this examination is not sufficiently clear.
