Controlled attenuation parameter is correlated with actual hepatic fat content in patients with non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease with none‐to‐mild obesity and liver fibrosis

Aim: Non‐invasive steatosis‐quantifying methods are required for non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients in order to monitor disease severity and assess therapeutic efficacy. Controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) evaluated with vibration‐controlled transient elastography can predict the presence of steatosis, but its application to absolute hepatic fat quantitation remains unclear. The aim of this st\udy was to examine whether CAP is correlated with real hepatic fat content in NAFLD patients.
