In this study, we aimed to test the concordance between hepatic stiffness measured with FS and fibrosis on liver biopsy in HBeAg-negative patients with an HBV DNA level between 2000 and 20,000 IU/ml with an ALT level between 1 and 2 times the ULN and in those with HBV DNA >20,000 IU/ml whose ALT was normal. Here, GPT is linked to fibrosis.
