Figure 1 Changes in liver stiffness (LS) in a single patient with severe alcoholic liver disease (ALD) during alcohol detoxification.
Upon alcohol withdrawal, GOT (A) almost normalized and LS (B) decreased by more than 3 kPa. LS eventually remained stable at ca. 7 kPa corresponding well with the histologically confirmed F2 fibrosis stage.
