Comparison of two transient elastography (TE) systems for measuring liver stiffness in clinical practice.

In patients with LSM Fibroscan > 10 kPa BAA showed a trend for lower values of LSM FT9000 than with LSM FibroScan; LSM-D had a positive correlation with platelet count ( r = 0.309, p < 0.001) and BMI ( r = 0.219, p = 0.009) and a negative correlation with AST ( r =-0.217, p = 0.01) and GGT ( r =-0.170, p = 0.044).

The BAA of the two instruments showed a bias of 0.52 kPa ( p = 0.01) with a 95% LoA of -11/+12 kPa with an evident trend for higher values measured by LSM FT9000 for LSM < 10 kPa and vice versa for LSM > 20 kPa (Fig. 2 ).
