Understanding Steatotic Liver Disease: Importance, Epidemiology, and Pathology

Steatotic liver disease, including metabolic dysfunction associated steatohepatitis (MASLD) and metabolic associated alcoholic liver disease (MALD), is a common cause of liver test abnormalities in the United States. Risk factors such as obesity and metabolic syndrome can lead to advanced fibrosis a

Prediction of Liver Fibrosis in NAFLD Patients: Impact of CAP Values

Steatosis has emerged as a significant diagnosis with NAFLD becoming a common cause for hepatologic evaluation. Liver stiffness measurement (LSM) using transient elastography is vital for assessing fibrosis severity in NAFLD patients. However, the accuracy of LSM can be influenced by obesity and sev
