Abstract

Liver fibrosis is the natural wound-healing response to parenchymal injury in chronic liver diseases. It may eventually results in liver Cirrhosis (F4) and its various complications (F0–F1, F2, F3). The assessment of liver fibrosis staging is essential for people suffering from chronic liver diseases. The degree of fibrosis plays a crucial indication for the severity of the underlying liver disease. Besides, it may have prognosis significance. In liver surgical training correspond to different stages of liver fibrosis, the liver stiffness is a novel parameter for the diagnosis.
