Liver ultrasound was prospectively evaluated in 104 subjects who underwent liver biopsy, including 24 patients without evidence of liver disease (controls), and 80 with a broad spectrum of liver pathology. Ultrasonography was very specific (100%) and moderately sensitive (70%) in the detection of liver pathology, and hepatic neoplasms, steatosis, and fibrosis were detected by ultrasound in 80%, 80%, and 67% of cases respectively. In addition, ultrasonography diagnosed other pathologies--mainly biliary tract disease and abdominal neoplasms--in 26% of the patients.
对104例接受肝脏活检的受试者进行了肝脏超声的前瞻性评估，其中包括24例无肝脏疾病证据的患者（对照组）以及80例患有广泛肝脏病理类型的患者。超声检查在肝脏病理检测方面具有很高的特异性（100%）和中等敏感性（70%），在80%、80%和67%的病例中分别通过超声检测出肝脏肿瘤、脂肪变性和纤维化。此外，超声检查在26%的患者中诊断出其他病理情况——主要是胆道疾病和腹部肿瘤。
