Performance of Transient Elastography for the Staging of Liver Fibrosis: A Meta-Analysis
Mireen Friedrich-Rust,Mei-Fang Ong,Swantje Martens,Christoph Sarrazin,Joerg Bojunga,Stefan Zeuzem,Eva Herrmann +6 more
TL;DR: Transient elastography can be performed with excellent diagnostic accuracy and independent of the underlying liver disease for the diagnosis of cirrhosis, however, for the diagnoses of significant fibrosis, a high variation of the AUROC was found that is dependent on the underlying Liver disease.

TL;DR: CAP provides a standardized non-invasive measure of hepatic steatosis and factors such as the underlying disease, BMI and diabetes must be taken into account when interpreting CAP.

Acoustic radiation force impulse-imaging and transient elastography for non-invasive assessment of liver fibrosis and steatosis in NAFLD
Mireen Friedrich-Rust,Daniela Romen,Johannes Vermehren,Susanne Kriener,Dilek Sadet,Eva Herrmann,Stefan Zeuzem,Joerg Bojunga +7 more
TL;DR: No significant difference in diagnostic accuracy for the non-invasive assessment of liver fibrosis was found for transient elastography and ARFI, Nevertheless TE significantly correlated with liver Fibrosis while ARFI did not.

Mireen Friedrich-Rust,Olga Romenski,Gesine Meyer,Nina Dauth,Katharina Holzer,Frank Grünwald,Susanne Kriener,Eva Herrmann,Stefan Zeuzem,Joerg Bojunga +9 more
TL;DR: ARFI can be performed in the thyroid tissue with reliable results and a significant difference was found between malignant thyroid nodules on the one hand and healthy thyroid tissue andhealthy thyroid tissue (p=0.018) or benign thyroid nodule (p =0.014) on the other hand.

Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse Imaging for Differentiation of Thyroid Nodules
Joerg Bojunga,Nina Dauth,Christian Berner,Gesine Meyer,Katharina Holzer,Lisa Voelkl,Eva Herrmann,Hartmut Schroeter,Stefan Zeuzem,Mireen Friedrich-Rust +9 more
TL;DR: ARFI can be used as an additional tool in the diagnostic work up of thyroid nodules with high negative predictive value and comparable results to RTE.
