Noninvasive Methods for Assessing Liver Fibrosis and Steatosis.
Accurate diagnosis and staging of liver fibrosis is crucial to the individualized management of patients with chronic liver disease. Liver biopsy remains the reference standard for the assessment of steatosis, necroinflammation, and fibrosis. However, over the past decade, there has been an exponent...

Liver biopsy remains the reference standard for the assessment of steatosis, necroinflammation, and fibrosis. However, over the past decade, there has been an exponential growth in noninvasive tests (NITs) designed to assess liver fibrosis and steatosis. These NITs range from serum biomarkers to imaging assessments of liver tissue stiffness. Current noninvasive methods overcome the limitations of nonspecific laboratory markers, conventional imaging, and invasive procedures, and are now starting to be adopted. The Fibrosis-4 index, Enhanced Liver Fibrosis test, and elastography have gained the strongest clinical footholds for the diagnosis of advanced fibrosis. There remains significant interest in demonstrating superiority of any specific test or, alternatively, optimizing a sequential algorithm to provide the most accurate diagnosis of fibrosis staging. This article reviews currently available noninvasive methods for assessing liver fibrosis and steatosis. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: review tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
