Distribution of sensitivities and specificities over the possible threshold ranges for liver stiffness measurement (LSM) by vibration controlled transient elastography (VCTE) (A), Fibrosis-4 Index (FIB-4) (B) and NAFLD (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease) Fibrosis Score (NFS) (C) when considering the diagnosis of advanced fibrosis. Insets show the distribution of cut-offs identified from the literature. Horizontal dashed lines are representing the minimum acceptable criteria for considering a test as having high sensitivity (≥80%) and high specificity (≥80%).
