Highlights
- Shear wave elastography (SWE) provides similar risk stratification performance as VCTE within FIB-4-based two-step MASLD algorithms.
- AGA- and EASL-based SWE algorithms effectively stratify liver-related event (LRE) risk into low, intermediate, and high categories.
- Strong correlation observed between SWE and VCTE liver stiffness measurements (Spearman’s ρ = 0.713).
- No significant difference in predictive accuracy or net reclassification improvement between SWE- and VCTE-based approaches.
