Data are number of findings. Numbers in parentheses are percentages. *Indicates significant difference. AUC = areas under receiver operating characteristic curve, QM = quality map, SD = standard deviation, SWV = shear-wave velocity, SD − QM = SD without guidance of QM, SD + QM = SD with guidance of QM, SWVmean − QM = mean value of SWV without guidance of QM, SWVmean + QM = mean value of SWV with guidance of QM, SWVmax − QM = max value of SWV without guidance of QM, SWVmax + QM = max value of SWV with guidance of QM
