What is Agreement Between 2-Dimensional Shear Wave and Transient Elastography Values for Diagnosis of Advanced Chronic Liver Disease about?

## Background & aims: Inter-platform variation in liver stiffness evaluation (lse) could hinder dissemination and clinical implementation of new ultrasound methods. we aimed to determine whether measurements of liver stiffness by bi-dimensional shear wave elastography (2d-swe) with a supersonic imagine apparatus are comparable to those made by vibration-controlled transient elastography (vcte). ## Methods: We collected data from 1219 consecutive patients with chronic liver disease who underwent lse by vcte and 2d-swe (performed by blinded operators), on the same day, at a single center in france from september 2011 through june 2019. we assessed the ability of liver stiffness value distributions and 2d-swe performances to identify patients with compensated advanced chronic liver disease (cacld) according to the baveno vi criteria, based on vcte cut-off values. ## Results: Vcte and 2d-swe values correlated (pearson's correlation coefficient, 0.882; p < .0001; lin concordance coefficient, 0.846; p < .0001). the median stiffness values were 6.7 kpa with vcte (interquartile range, 4.8-11.6 kpa) and 7.1 kpa with 2d-swe (interquartile range, 5.4-11.1 kpa) (p = .736). 2d-swe values were s
