In the first chapters, which focus on the correct methodology for Diagnostic Accuracy Assessment of non -invasive techniques, the architecture of diagnostic research is discussed. In turn, the following sections describe a broad range of clinical applications in hepatology and gastroenterology. The closing section presents a number of case studies on practical issues, together with a critical discussion on how to promote the appropriate use of these technologies. Given its scope, the book will be of interest to specialists, post-graduate medical students, and researchers in the fields of hepatology and gastroenterology. 001439257 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed September 13, 2021). 001439257 650_0 $$aLiver$$xDiseases$$xImaging. 001439257 650_0 $$aLiver$$xDiseases$$xDiagnosis. 001439257 650_0 $$aElastography. 001439257 650_6 $$aFoie$$xMaladies$$xDiagnostic. 001439257 650_6 $$aÉlastographie. 001439257 655_7 $$aLlibres electrònics.$$2thub 001439257 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001439257 7001_ $$aFraquelli, Mirella,$$eeditor. 001439257 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tElastography of the liver and beyond.$$dCham, Switzerland : Springer, 2021$$z3030741311$$z9783030741310$$w(OCoLC)1243349284 001439257 852__ $$bebk 001439257 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-74132-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001439257 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1439257$$pGLOBAL_SET 001439257 980__ $$aBIB 001439257 980__ $$aEBOOK 001439257 982__ $$aEbook 001439257 983__ $$aOnline 001439257 994__ $$a92$$bISE
