| Core Tip |
Measurement of shear wave velocity in the spleen has been increasingly used in prognostic assessment of esophageal varices and as a marker of portal hypertension. The current recommendations of medical societies for splenic elastography note methodological limitations in transient elastography. Currently, whether the different elastography methods and shear wave measurements with different ultrasonic devices provide comparable results has not been clarified. Our results show that the most reliable measurements for all devices were obtained at the lower pole of the spleen. However, absolute values of splenic shear wave elastography measurements are not transferable between manufacturers or models. |
