DEVICE

Acoustic radiation force impulse imaging

Acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) imaging were measured 10 times in each patient.The region of interest was chosen in an area where the normal liver parenchyma was at least 6 cm thick and free of large blood vessels was chosen. A measurement depth of 2 cm below the liver capsule was chosen to standardize the examination.
