Towards Noninvasive Detection of Oesophageal Varices

Towards Noninvasive Detection of Oesophageal Varices

Current guidelines recommend that all cirrhotic patients should undergo screening endoscopy at diagnosis to identify patients with varices at high risk of bleeding who will benefit from primary prophylaxis. This approach places a heavy burden upon endoscopy units and the repeated testing over time m...
