TL;DR: This study investigated the diagnostic value of S‐SWE for diagnosis of CSPH and showed the algorithm to rule‐out C SPH using sequential liver‐ (L‐S THE AUTHORS) and spleen‐Shear‐wave elastography (S‐Swe).

TL;DR: In this paper, a prospective multicentre study investigated the use of Shear-Wave elastography of the liver (L-SWE) as a promising tool to diagnose portal hypertension.
The risk of early occurrence and recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma in hepatitis C infected patients treated with direct acting antivirals with and without pegylated interferon: a Belgian experience

TL;DR: A high early recurrence rate of HCC in patients treated with direct‐acting antivirals (DAA) for hepatitis C infection was observed, and screening for HCC was inadequate in 20% of both patient groups.
2D shear wave liver elastography by aixplorer to detect portal hypertension in cirrhosis: an individual patient data meta-analysis

TL;DR: Liver stiffness measured with 2‐dimensional shear wave elastography by Supersonic Imagine (2DSWE‐SSI) is well‐established for fibrosis diagnostics, but non‐conclusive for portal hypertension.
Liver Fibrosis Evaluation Using Real-time Shear Wave Elastography in Hepatitis C-Monoinfected and Human Immunodeficiency Virus/Hepatitis C-Coinfected Patients.

TL;DR: The diagnostic performance of liver stiffness measured by SWE as a noninvasive predictor of liver fibrosis in HCV using liver biopsy as a reference standard is investigated, including monoinfected and coinfected patients.
