Hepatic ultrasound elastography system

Definition

An assembly of mains electricity (AC-powered) devices, which may include rechargeable batteries, designed to measure liver stiffness/ultrasonic attenuation of tissues based on transient elastography for the evaluation/diagnosis of hepatic disease (e.g., liver fibrosis/steatosis); it may additionally be intended to measure spleen stiffness as an adjunct evaluation. It is typically used during diagnosis of chronic liver conditions such as viral hepatits, alcoholic hepatitis, and biliary disease, or for post-transplant evaluation. It consists of both a generator with dedicated software and a noninvasive applicator(s).
