Study summary

The aim of our prospective study is to construct and validate a non-invasive model consisting biochemical markers, FibroScan, and radiological parameters for evaluating liver fibrosis caused by hepatitis B virus in mainland China.

Read the detailed description

Up to Oct, 2015,total of 1800 patients with chronic HBV infection were enrolled. Paired blood and liver biopsy samples were collected. Blood samples stored at -80 degree Celsius. Liver biopsy samples were judged by three pathology experts.
