Magnetic resonance elastography and acoustic radiation force impulse for staging hepatic fibrosis: a meta-analysis.

Purpose: Elastography is a non-invasive method to quantify fibrosis based on tissue mechanical properties. We performed a meta-analysis to assess the diagnostic accuracy of two such techniques: Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse Imaging (ARFI) or Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE) for staging hepat...

      ab: Purpose: Elastography is a non-invasive method to quantify fibrosis based on tissue mechanical properties. We performed a meta-analysis to assess the diagnostic accuracy of two such techniques: Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse Imaging (ARFI) or Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE) for staging hepatic fibrosis.Materials and Methods: Literature databases were searched until June 2013. Inclusion criteria were evaluation of MRE or ARFI, liver biopsy, and reported sensitivity and specificity. A random effects model was used to combine sensitivity and specificity, from which positive (LR+) and negative (LR-) likelihood ratios, diagnostic odds ratios, and area under receiver operating characteristics curve (AUROC) were derived. Differences between MRE and ARFI were compared with t tests (P < 0.05 considered significant).Results: Eleven MRE studies including 982 patients and fifteen ARFI studies including 2,128 patients were selected. AUROC for MRE staging fibrosis were 0.94, 0.97, 0.96, and 0.97 for F1-F4, respectively, whereas AUROC for ARFI staging were 0.82, 0.85, 0.94, and 0.94 for F1-F4, respectively. Significance was found in AUROC between MRE and ARFI for the diagnosis of stage 1 and 2 fibrosis.Conclusion: MRE is more accurate than ARFI with a higher combination of sensitivity, specificity, LR, and AUROC particularly in diagnosing early stages of hepatic fibrosis.
