简要总结
Bleeding due to rupture of esophageal varices is one of main cause of death in chronic liver disease , that endoscopy screening is recommended. However Endoscopy in every chronicliver disease patient is not possible due to high burden of disease and unavailability inrural areas. Also endoscopy is invasive and frequently can not be performed.There is need for simple, reliable, noninvasive method that would allow prediction of esophageal varices without endoscopy.This will help in identification of high risk patient in whom on endoscopytherewill be high chances of oesophageal varices and thus reduce the risk of bleeding .
