Summary

This study compared two methods for taking liver samples and measuring blood pressure in the liver: a newer method using an endoscope (EUS) and the standard method through a neck vein (transjugular). 58 adults with chronic liver disease or high liver pressure took part. The goal was to see if the newer method works just as well as the standard one.
