MRE, 1D-TE, and 2D-SWE assigned the majority of patients to the same fibrosis group. The agreement was at least good, and there was a strong correlation between kPa values in all three pairs of techniques. Highest agreement was found between MRE and 1D-TE. High BMI was associated with discordance among the techniques.
