Journal ArticleDOI
Prospective Comparison of Transient Elastography, Fibrotest, APRI, and Liver Biopsy for the Assessment of Fibrosis in Chronic Hepatitis C
Laurent Castera,Julien Vergniol,Juliette Foucher,Brigitte Le Bail,E. Chanteloup,Maud Haaser,Monique Darriet,Patrice Couzigou,Victor de Ledinghen +8 more
TL;DR: FibroScan is a simple and effective method for assessing liver fibrosis, with similar performance to FibroTest and APRI, and could avoid a biopsy procedure in most patients with chronic hepatitis C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnosis of fibrosis and cirrhosis using liver stiffness measurement in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
Vincent Wai-Sun Wong,Julien Vergniol,Grace Lai-Hung Wong,Juliette Foucher,Henry Lik-Yuen Chan,Brigitte Le Bail,Paul Cheung-Lung Choi,Mathurin Kowo,Anthony W.H. Chan,Wassil Merrouche,Joseph J.Y. Sung,Victor de Ledinghen +11 more
TL;DR: Transient elastography is accurate in most NAFLD patients and is useful as a screening test to exclude advanced fibrosis, and liver biopsy may be considered in patients with liver stiffness of at least 7.9 kPa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Noninvasive Tests for Fibrosis and Liver Stiffness Predict 5-Year Outcomes of Patients With Chronic Hepatitis C
Julien Vergniol,Juliette Foucher,Eric Terrebonne,Pierre Bernard,Brigitte Le Bail,Wassil Merrouche,Patrice Couzigou,Victor de Ledinghen +7 more
TL;DR: Noninvasive tests for liver fibrosis (measurement of liver stiffness or FibroTest) can predict 5-year survival of patients with chronic hepatitis C and might help physicians determine prognosis at earlier stages and discuss specific treatments, such as liver transplantation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Liver stiffness in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease: A comparison of supersonic shear imaging, FibroScan, and ARFI with liver biopsy.
Christophe Cassinotto,Jérôme Boursier,Victor de Ledinghen,Jérôme Lebigot,Bruno Lapuyade,Paul Calès,Jean-Baptiste Hiriart,Sophie Michalak,Brigitte Le Bail,V. Cartier,Amaury Mouries,Frédéric Oberti,Isabelle Fouchard-Hubert,Julien Vergniol,Christophe Aubé +14 more
TL;DR: Although obesity is associated with an increase in LSM failure, the studied techniques and especially SSI provide high value for the diagnosis of liver fibrosis in NAFLD patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-invasive diagnosis of liver steatosis using controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) and transient elastography.
TL;DR: The aim of this study was to prospectively evaluate the performance of CAP for the diagnosis of steatosis in patients with chronic liver disease.
