Transient elastography (FibroScan®) with controlled attenuation parameter in the assessment of liver steatosis and fibrosis in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease – Where do we stand?

This 2016 review evaluates the utility of transient elastography (TE) with controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) in assessing liver steatosis and fibrosis in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients. TE with CAP is a non-invasive, rapid, and reproducible method that quantifies liver stiffness and steatosis levels, offering an alternative to liver
