Methods:We included a total of 43 patients with PBC whose shear wave propagation velocity (Vs) was measured using shear wave elastography(SWE). Vs was compared among asymptomatic PBC patients(aPBC), symptomatic PBC patients(sPBC), and healthy controls(control). The correlations between Vs and clinical parameters were examined. Result:Vs was significantly higher in the aPBC group compared with the control, and in the sPBC group compared with the aPBC group. Vs positively correlated with alanine aminotransferase and fibrosis-4 index, and negatively correlated with albumin, platelets, and prothrombin activity. In PBC patients without active hepatitis of less than ALT level 30, FIB-4 index was extracted as the independent factor which contributed to Vs. Conclusion:Measurement of Vs using SWE can predict the degree of PBC progression.}, pages = {137--143}, title = {Shear Wave Elastographyによる原発性胆汁性胆管炎の肝硬度測定}, volume = {47}, year = {2020} }
