Abstract

= 188), the multivariable model, 2D SWE, and transient elastography showed comparable performance (AUC: 0.91 vs 0.86 vs 0.88, respectively). When inflammatory activity was considered, the multivariable model was highly accurate in patients with low-grade inflammation and normal levels of alanine aminotransferase (AUC: 0.97 and 0.94, respectively). Conclusion The multivariable model and two-dimensional shear-wave elastography are more accurate in predicting liver-related events than are the fibrosis stage and serum markers of liver fibrosis tests. © RSNA, 2020
