This study shows that TE and pSWE VTQ are reliable methods to evaluate liver fibrosis in children with CF. This study shows for the first time that TE and pSWE VTQ are both repeatable and reproducible in children with CF. These data indicate that both TE and pSWE VTQ can be proposed for the follow-up of patients with CF, according to their availability in each CF center.
