Fig. 3From: The usefulness of noninvasive liver stiffness assessment using shear-wave elastography for predicting liver fibrosis in childrenHemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis combined with the hepatitis in a 2.2-year-old boy. The serum biochemical marker levels were as follows: AST to platelet ratio index (APRI), 14.5; AST to alanine aminotransferase ratio (AAR), 0.8; and fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) score, 0.4. a Two-dimensional shear-wave elastography (2D-SWE) showing diffuse hyperechoic parenchyma with 14.7Â kPa liver stiffness value. b Histopathologic specimen showing moderate lobular necroinflammatory activity and few portal fibrosis with METAVIR score, F2Back to article page
