Liver injury during inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is primarily diagnosed by liver biopsy, which has a small but serious risk of severe complications. The aim of this study was to assess liver stiffness, and subsequently the prevalence and associations of liver fibrosis in IBD patients with thiopurine therapy and other clinical factors, by using transient elastography (TE).
