Diagnostic Accuracy of Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse (ARFI) and Wisteria floribunda Agglutinin-Positive Mac-2-Binding Protein (WFA⁺-M2BP) in Patients with Chronic Liver Disease

Background The present study assessed and compared the diagnostic accuracy of elastography (acoustic radiation force impulse, ARFI) with that of Wisteria floribunda agglutinin-positive Mac-2-binding protein (WFA+-M2BP) for estimating the stage of hepatic fibrosis in chronic liver disease patients.
