Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Few studies have evaluated the accuracy of ultrasonography in detecting steatosis in patients with chronic hepatitis C. We assessed its accuracy in detecting steatosis and factors that affect its diagnostic performance in consecutive patients with chronic hepatitis C virus genotype 1 infection. METHODS: We analyzed data from 515 patients with chronic hepatitis C, confirmed by liver biopsy,...
