F3 stage: A male patient aged 57 years old with HCV chronic hepatitis and slightly elevated AST and ALT. Conventional US reveals the following (a and b): Liver >>wave form surface (score 2), coarse with reticular pattern (score 3), hepatic veins with irregular wall, and normal caliber (score 2) “cumulated score 7.” Mild ascites, enlarged spleen size (longitudinal axis=160 mm), dilated portal vein caliber (14.6 mm), multiple GB stones. 2D shear wave elastography (c and d): Velocity median value = 2.20 m/s. Stiffness median value =11 kPa. Fibrotest result was 0.63 denoting F3 stage (e)
