| Core Tip |
Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) was proposed for the evaluation of liver fibrosis. However, no previous studies have evaluated the utility of CEUS for liver fibrosis caused by biliary obstruction, which can be the major cause of liver fibrosis in children. Therefore, we investigated the feasibility of CEUS to evaluate liver fibrosis from biliary obstruction by quantitatively assessing perfusion changes in an animal model with bile duct ligation. We also demonstrated that the parameter of peak signal intensity from CEUS could be useful to evaluate liver fibrosis from biliary obstruction. |
