Shear wave elastography may be sensitive and more precise than transient elastography in predicting significant fibrosis

Figure 4 Areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves. Areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUROCs) for shear wave elastography and transient elastography in assessing significant liver fibrosis (F > 2) in patients with chronic hepatitis B infection. There were no significant differences in the AUROCs between the two examination methods. SWE: Shear wave elastography; TE: Transient elastography.
