Test-retest repeatability of ultrasonographic shear wave elastography in a rat liver fibrosis model: toward a quantitative biomarker for preclinical trials
Purpose This study evaluated the test-retest repeatability and measurement variability of ultrasonographic shear wave elastography (SWE) for liver stiffness in a rat liver fibrosis model. Methods In 31 Sprague-Dawley rats divided into three groups (high-dose, low-dose, and control), liver fibrosis w...
