Novel reliability criteria for controlled attenuation parameter assessments for non‐invasive evaluation of hepatic steatosis

Abstract

CAP-IQR/median<0.1, <0.2, and <0.3 identify reliable measurements for diagnosing any hepatic steatosis (≥S1). Importantly, CAP-IQR/median<0.3 has a considerably higher applicability in clinical practice, as compared with the previously suggested CAP-IQR<40 dB/m criterion.
