MULTIPARAMETER ULTRASOUND FOR LIVER AND PANCREAS IN MODERN CONDITIONS

The Aim. To determine the value of multiparametric ultrasonic methods of research in the frame-work of comprehensive elastography.Materials and methods. The study included 256 people: men - 145 (56,7%), women - 111 (43,3%), aged 47,4 ± 5,7, suffering from diffuse liver diseases and pancreas diseases. To determine the diagnostic and prognostic value of a comprehensive elastography use there were performed: transient edastography, compression elastography, endosonography in elastography compression, shear wave elastography.Results. According to the study it was found: the body mass index (more than 25 kg/cm2) is the restriction to conduct transient elastography, compression elastography; heart disorder - compression elastography and compression elastography at endosonography (AUROC = 0,893, [0,878 - 0,979]). Compression elastography of pancreas at endosonography is the method of choice in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant processes, to clarify the “zone of interest” for puncture-aspiration biopsy (AUROC = 0,981, [0,891-0,982]).Conclusions. Multiparameter ultrasound elastography study complex increases the diagnostic and prognostic value of the algorithm of patients examination with liver and pancreas diseases: specificity- 97,5%, sensitivity - 95,6%, accuracy - 96,5%.
