Spleen and Liver Stiffness Evaluation by ARFI Imaging: A Reliable Tool for a Short-Term Monitoring of Portal Hypertension?

Figure 8

The AUC-ROC results for LSM and SSM in diagnosis of responder status in comparison to HVPG results showed a very poor ability to diagnose a successful NSBB treatment (HVPG = hepatic venous pressure gradient; LSM = liver stiffness measurement; SSM = spleen stiffness measurement).
