Study of detection times for liver stiffness evaluation by shear wave elastography

Figure 3 Receiver operating characteristic curves of all groups showed that the diagnostic performance of 1 VM, 2 VMs, 3 VMs, 5 VMs and 10 VMs of detection in distinguishing degree of liver fibrosis was equivalent. The receiver operating characteristic curves using these different VMs for predicting significant fibrosis (≥ F0) (A), (≥ F1) (B), (≥ F2) (C) and cirrhosis (F4) (D) in chronic hepatitis B. AUROC values among 1, 2, 3, 5 and all 10 VMs taken did not differ significantly (P > 0.05 for all). VMs: Valid measurements.
