Non-invasive assessment of liver fibrosis using two-dimensional shear wave elastography in patients with autoimmune liver diseases

Table 3 Median values, inter quartile range, ranges, and P values of measurements obtained for each fibrosis stage using two-dimensional shear wave elastography

METAVIR stage	F0-F1	F2	F3	F4
Median value, kPa	7.7	11.7	14.7	22.0
IQR	6.5-9.2	8.3-15.4	12.3-22.3	18.8-33.3
Range	4.9-25.8	4.6-51.7	8.7-67.2	10.1-45.3
P value1		< 0.001	0.009	0.011

¹P values refer to differences between consecutive fibrosis stages. IQR: Inter quartile range.
