Table 2. Summary of liver stiffness measurements with STE and SSI.
System | LSVs (kPa)† | IQR/M (%)† | Median-centered COV (%) | ICC for intrasystem agreement‡ |
---|---|---|---|---|
STE (Mindray) | 9.93±5.21 | 8.41±5.36 | 65.2 | 0.94 (0.937–0.943) |
SSI (Aixplorer) | 9.69±6.18 | 5.50±3.62 | 86.5 | 0.984 (0.984–0.985) |
†, data are expressed as means ± standard deviations; ‡, 95% confidence intervals of ICC are in parentheses. STE, sound touch elastography; SSI, supersonic shear imaging; LSV, liver stiffness value; IQR, interquartile range; M, median; COV, coefficient of variation; ICC, intraclass correlation coefficient.
