Abstract
The steady increase in the number of patients with chronic diff use liver diseases, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, leads to the need to introduce non-invasive methods of diagnosis and monitoring changes in the structure of the organ into clinical practice.
Objective. To evaluate the possibility of using shear wave steatometry and elastography in the diagnosis of fi brosis stage and degree of steatosis in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
Materials and methods of research. The study involved 52 patients of the I. I. Mechnikov NWSMU clinic with NAFLD, 28 of them men and 24 women, the average age was 51-+11.2 g, the average BMI-30,7-+5,4 kg / m2. The control group consisted of 20 healthy volunteers. All patients underwent complex ultrasound on the Angiodin-Sono/P-Ultra device (Bioss, Russia) with a 1–6 MHz convexic sensor (B-mode, Doppler modes—vascular mapping and spectral pulse, shear wave elastometry, elastography (active and natural compression—Active / Natural Strain)).
