SIAD (Societé d'Imagerie Abdominale et Digestive) and AFEF (Association Française pour l'Etude du Foie) best practice position paper on the implementation of ultrasound elastography in clinical practice
Purpose
The diagnosis of liver fibrosis is critical in managing chronic liver diseases. The EASL guidelines now recognize ultrasound elastography as a valuable, non-invasive method for assessing liver fibrosis. However, there is a lack of uniform use and reporting of the technique. The purpose of this position paper was to provide guidance on using ultrasound elastography techniques and interpreting results in clinical practice.
Materials and methods
A French national consensus panel of experts in radiology and hepatology, convened by SIAD (Société d'Imagerie Abdominale et Digestive) and AFEF (Association Française pour l'Etude du Foie), developed a position statement paper on best practices in ultrasound elastography. They were established using an online Delphi methodology that included an online panel discussion and item preparation. Consensus was achieved when ≥ 80 % of the participants agreed with a specific recommendation.
Results
The accuracy and reliability of ultrasound elastography results could be significantly affected by a variety of operator-related and patient-related factors. Standard recommendations have been established in two areas, including recommendations for measurements and factors affecting results and reliability, and guidelines for standardized reporting of ultrasound elastography results.
Conclusion
This position paper is a comprehensive and accessible guide for clinicians that outlines best practices and standardized protocols to improve the reliability of ultrasound elastography assessments.
