Body habitus vs. hepatic steatosis: Understanding the drivers of non-diagnostic shear wave elastography
Purpose: Shear Wave Elastography (SWE) is frequently non-diagnostic in obese patients, a key cohort at risk for liver disease. Subcutaneous fat and hepatic steatosis are suspected drivers, but their relative contribution is unknown. We compare ultrasound-guided attenuation parameter (UGAP), a marker...
