Liver cirrhosis is an advanced stage of chronic liver diseases, which is often associated with various complications, namely esophageal and/or gastric varices, ascites, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It is well known that the risk of complications varies even among cirrhotic patients, as those with more advanced disease would have more complications and poorer survival rates. Liver stiffness measurement (LSM) with transient elastography is found useful to identify cirrhotic patients with higher risk of portal hypertension and presence of varices . Recently, spleen stiffness measurement (SSM) with the same machine was found accurate to predict portal hypertension and esophageal varices.
