Arm Description

Patients with a Spleen to Skin Distance less than 15mm and who present a splenomegaly.

Patients with a Spleen to Skin Distance less than 15mm and who does not present a splenomegaly.

Patients with a Spleen to Skin Distance between 15 and 25 mm and who present a splenomegaly.

Patients with a Spleen to Skin Distance between 15 and 25 mm and who does not present a splenomegaly.

Patients with a Spleen to Skin Distance higher than 25 mm and who present a splenomegaly.

Patients with a Spleen to Skin Distance higher than 25 mm and who does not present a splenomegaly.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Success rate of the spleen stiffness measurement (SSM) exam with the XL probe, defined with at least 8 valid measurements after the exam quality control
The success rate is calculated with the number of valid measurements vs the total measurements done by the operator for every exam. The FibroScan will automatically analyze the measurement and based on some validity criteria will define the measurement as "valid" (will lead to a reliable SSM measurement) or "invalid" (will lead to a non-reliable SSM measurement).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Success rate of the spleen stiffness measurement (SSM) exam with the S probe, defined with at least 8 valid measurements after the exam quality control.
The success rate is calculated with the number of valid measurements vs the total measurements done by the operator for every exam. The FibroScan will automatically analyze the measurement and based on some validity criteria will define the measurement as "valid" (will lead to a reliable SSM measurement) or "invalid" (will lead to a non-reliable SSM measurement).
Success rate of the spleen stiffness measurement (SSM) exam with the optimized M probe, defined with at least 8 valid measurements after the exam quality control.
The success rate is calculated with the number of valid measurements vs the total measurements done by the operator for every exam. The FibroScan will automatically analyze the measurement and based on some validity criteria will define the measurement as "valid" (will lead to a reliable SSM measurement) or "invalid" (will lead to a non-reliable SSM measurement).
Change of the applicability with the Spleen Targeting Tool (STT) and the automatic depth adaptation mode enabled.
This will be tested with unilateral Wilcoxon signed rank test comparing success rates with and without STT and with and without automatic depth adaptation.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is an European, prospective, interventional, and multicenter clinical investigation which main objective is to develop a spleen examination dedicated to overweight or obese patients and assess its applicability. It will take place in 4 sites (1 site in the Netherlands, 2 sites in Spain and 1 site in Romania) to include a total of 500 patients (adults and children).

6. Conditions and Keywords

Primary Disease or Condition Being Studied in the Trial, or the Focus of the Study

Interventional Study Model
Parallel Assignment
Model Description
There will be 6 different groups of patients depending on the spleen to skin distance and the presence or absence of splenomegaly. Every patient in every group will do an ultrasound and 2 FibroScan exams. The differences between Group 1 (1a and 1b), Group 2 (2a and 2b) and Group 3 (3a and 3b) are the probes that will be used to do the FibroScan.
