Figure 1 Spleen area and spleen diameter measurements using the elastography point quantification.
Figure 2 Flow chart displaying the selection of patients included in the final statistical analysis.
EGD: Esophago-gastroduodenoscopy; HVPG: Hepatic venous pressure gradient; ElastPQ: Elastography point quantification; HCC: Hepatocellular carcinoma; TIPS: Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt; PH: Portal hypertension.
Figure 3 Comparative area under the receiver operating characteristic curve analyses of combination variables in predicting the presence or absence of clinically significant portal hypertension.
A: Spleen area (> 57.90 kPa) and platelet count (< 126.0 × 109); B: Spleen stiffness (> 29.99 kPa) and platelet count (< 126.0 × 109). AUROC: Area under the receiver operating characteristic.
