F3-F4 stage: A female patient aged 64 years old with HCV chronic hepatitis and elevated AST and ALT. Conventional US reveals the following (a and b): Liver >>irregular nodular (score 3), coarse with reticular pattern (score 3), hepatic veins with irregular wall and normal caliber (score 2) “cumulated score 8.” Mild ascites, enlarged spleen size (longitudinal axis =178 mm), dilated portal vein caliber. 2D shear wave elastography (c and d): Velocity median value = 2.39 m/s. Stiffness median value =14.63 kPa. Fibrotest result was 0.81 denoting F4 stage (e)
