Comparison of Hepatus and FibroScan for Evaluation of Fibrosis and Steatosis

March 27, 2023 updated by: Hong You, Beijing Friendship Hospital

Comparison of Hepatus and FibroScan for Evaluation of Fibrosis and Steatosis in Chronic Hepatitis B or NAFLD Patients

Totals of 400 chronic hepatitis B or non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients with or without cirrhosis will be enrolled. Patients' clinical characteristics, including alanine aminotransferase, aspartic aminotransferase, total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, indirect bilirubin, triglyceride and total cholesterol, hepatitis B surface antigen, steatosis, and liver stiffness measurement will be collected. The consistence of liver fibrosis and steatosis assessment between Hepatus and FibroScan will be evaluated in this study.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Consistency of liver stiffness and steatosis results in the same location between Hepatus in continuous measurement mode and FibroScan in single detection mode.
Time Frame: 1 to 3 years
Consistency of liver stiffness and steatosis between Hepatus and FibroScan.
1 to 3 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Consistency of liver stiffness and steatosis results between Hepatus in continuous measurement mode and FibroScan in single detection mode through the respective localization methods.
Time Frame: 1 to 3 years
The localization method of Hepatus is the real-time two-dimensional image guiding system, which is manually location in FibroScan.
1 to 3 years
Consistency of liver stiffness and steatosis results between Hepatus and FibroScan in single detection mode.
Time Frame: 1 to 3 years
The localization methods include the respective localization methods in Hepatus and FibroScan, and manually locating.
1 to 3 years
Comparison of measurement performance in Hepatus under continuous detection mode and in FibroScan through single detection mode.
Time Frame: 1 to 3 years
Evaluation of measurement performance includes the rate of successful detection, time taken for validated detection, stability of liver stiffness measurement and controlled attenuation parameter.
1 to 3 years
