L’élastométrie impulsionnelle : Cette méthode d’exploration physique consiste à mesurer la vitesse d’une onde transmise vers le foie et [à] calculer le coefficient d’élasticité du foie. Exemple : en cas d’hépatite C, une valeur d’élastométrie basse signifie très probablement qu’il n’existe pas de fibrose, mais si cette valeur est importante une cirrhose est quasi certaine. 5, record 1, French, - %C3%A9lastom%C3%A9trie%20impulsionnelle%20ultrasonore
