Spleen stiffness measurement (SSM) demonstrated strong predictive accuracy for liver decompensation in patients with compensated advanced chronic liver disease (cACLD), with an optimal cutoff of 50 ...
While liver stiffness measurement by vibration-controlled transient elastography with a 25 kPa threshold might detect CSPH, the overall low quality of the studies means that these results are not very ...
Spleen stiffness measurement could revolutionize the diagnosis and management of portal hypertension
Portal hypertension (PHT) is a severe complication of chronic liver disease, like cirrhosis, where increased pressure builds up in the portal vein. This major blood vessel drains blood from the ...
Spleen stiffness measurement (SSM) offers a noninvasive method to diagnose portal hypertension in BCR::ABL1-negative MPN patients, potentially improving patient management. SSM captures hepatic ...
Make sure your hands are warm. Typically, you would use indirect percussion on the abdominal examination. This involves placing your nondominant hand on the skin and tapping the middle finger of this ...
MASH patients exhibit a higher spleen-to-liver stiffness ratio than ALD patients, indicating a presinusoidal component in portal hypertension. The study found that MASH patients have larger spleen ...
