Fig. 1 Distribution of transient elastography values in patients with or without esophageal varices. Results are expressed in kilopascals (kPa). EV grade I=esophageal varices grade I present; EV grade II=esophageal varices grade II present; EV grade III=esophageal varices grade III present; EV−=esophageal varices absent. FibroScan values in patients with or without esophageal varices overlap between 12 and 18kPa but are significantly elevated in patients with esophageal varices.
