Abstract
Real-time Tissue Elastography(RTE) is a new ultrasound mode developed for visualizing tissue hardness and softness. Recently, RTE has been extended to study liver fibrosis and reported that RTE image becomes patchy as fibrosis progresses. However, it is difficult to evaluate fibrosis progression visually from the patchy pattern quantitatively. In this study, we will present a method to evaluate liver fibrosis quantitatively using features of RTE image. This technique would significantly reduce interobsever variability in studying liver fibrosis.
