Abstract
Key points 1. MRE has high sensitivity and specificity in evaluating liver fibrosis in children. 2. MRE-LS is significantly correlated with histological Ishak fibrosis stage. 3. Comparing to other parameters, only MRE-LS is a predictor of fibrosis stage. 4. In the future, MRE may replace biopsy to evaluate liver fibrosis.
