Figure 6.

Liver stiffness measurement obtained with THE in a cirrhotic patient with ascites (white arrow). In this picture, we can see the acquisition of the LSM (in the right side of the figure) reflecting cirrhotic liver in orange-red. We can depict the orange-red appearance of the cirrhotic liver even if ascites is present. The current ROI has an area of 20.4 cm² with a corresponding LS (mean ± SD, (5% percentile, 95% percentile)) of shear wave speed = 3.46 m/s ± 0.80 m/s (2.38 m/s, 4.98 m/s) and Youngs modulus = 35.91 kPa ± 16.61 kPa (16.99 kPa, 74.40 kPa) respectively.
