TOPLINE: Spleen stiffness measurement (SSM) demonstrated strong predictive accuracy for liver decompensation in patients with compensated advanced chronic liver disease (cACLD), with an optimal cutoff of 50 kPa. METHODOLOGY: Portal hypertension is a key prognostic factor in cACLD. Although hepatic venous pressure gradient measurement is the gold standard for assessing it…
