| Core Tip |
Clinical diagnostics of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) relies on non-invasive diagnostic tools, such as transient elastography (TE)/FibroScan®. TE measures liver stiffness, an important clinical marker of liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. However, TE measurements have limited accuracy in obese patients. This study reviews the limitations of TE-based diagnostics and discusses the combined scoring algorithm. Data review indicates that in patients with MASLD reliable diagnostic accuracy can be achieved by combining FibroScan® measurements with various blood test-based scores, including agile and fibrosis score indicators. |
