Measurements of Serum Mac-2-Binding Protein Glycosylation Isomer and Shear Wave Velocity in Health Checkups Are Useful in Screening for Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis
Liver-related mortality rates in patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) increase with advancing liver fibrosis stage. The present study aimed to elucidate whether adding non-invasive liver fibrosis tests to a comprehensive health checkup system is useful for NASH screening. Both serum Ma...
