Gastroenterology
. 2015 Oct;
150(1):134-144.e10.
PMID: 26453773
Background & Aims: Patients chronically infected with the hepatitis B virus rarely achieve loss of serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) with the standard of care. We evaluated HBsAg loss...

Liver Int
. 2012 Mar;
32(6):902-10.
PMID: 22435761
Background: Accurate tools for the noninvasive detection of hepatic steatosis are needed. The Controlled Attenuation Parameter (CAP) specifically targets liver steatosis using a process based on transient elastography. Methods: Patients...
