The Performance of TE Diagnosing Liver Fibrosis in PSC.
Box plot of TE measurement depending on histological fibrosis stage F0-F4 (n = 62). The bottom and top of the boxes represent the 25th and 75th percentile and the horizontal lines the median. The whiskers are the minimum and maximum of the data.

Survival Rates of PSC Patients for Different TE Cut-off Values.
Survival rates according to the different cut-off values (A-C) of TE measurement as previously suggested [15]. (log-rank test, p<0.0001).

Survival rates according to SL and TE measurement.
Survival rates according to SL measurement with 120 mm cut-off and according to TE measurement with different cut-off values (B-D) for the combined cohort of PSC patients (Hamburg + Paris, see text). (log-rank test, p<0.001 each).
