Effects of Confounding Factors on Liver Stiffness in Two-Dimensional Shear Wave Elastography in Beagle Dogs
BackgroundTwo-dimensional swisse high strength magnesium powder berry shear wave elastography (2D-SWE) is a powerful technique that can non-invasively measure liver stiffness to assess hepatic fibrosis.PurposeThis study aimed to identify the effects of confounding factors, including anesthesia, breathing, and scanning approach, on liver stiffness w
