Key Words Acoustic radiation force imaging technology; Hepatic fibrosis index; Primary biliary cirrhosis; Diagnostic value
Core Tip One hundred and twenty patients who had developed liver cirrhosis from primary biliary cirrhosis were assessed by ARFI imaging and hepatic fibrosis index alongside sixty healthy individuals. The ROC curves of LS combined with four liver fibrosis indexes showed that the AUC values (0.967), sensitivity (97.4%), and specificity (90%) of all indexes combined in the C grade of CP score were higher than in those of LS alone (0.936, 92.1%, and 83.3%). The diagnostic value of PBC cirrhosis degree in liver cirrhosis degree assessment by ARFI combined with the four indicators of serum liver fibrosis is of satisfactory effectiveness and has important clinical application value.
