F2 stage: A male patient aged 43 years old with HBV chronic hepatitis and elevated AST and ALT. He is also a known cardiac patient presented with tachypnea. Conventional US reveals the following (a and b): Liver >>smooth surface (score 1), coarse with reticular pattern (score 3), smooth hepatic veins (score 1) “cumulated score 5.” Minimal ascites, normal spleen size, normal portal vein caliber. 2D shear wave elastography (c and d): Velocity median value = 1.80 m/s. Stiffness median value =9.51 kPa. Fibrotest result was 0.3 denoting F1 stage (e)
