Background & Aims: Real-time shear wave elastography (RT-SWE) might be useful to assess the severity of portal hypertension; reliability criteria for measurement are needed.Methods: We prospectively included 88 consecutive patients undergoing hepatic venous pressure gradient measurement (HVPG, reference standard) for portal hypertension. Liver stiffness (LS) was measured by RT-SWE and by transient elastography (TE). Spleen stiffness (SS) was measured by RT-SWE. Reliability criteria for RT-SWE were searched, and the accuracy of these techniques to identify HVPG P10 mmHg (clinically significant portal hypertension, CSPH) was tested and internally validated by bootstrapping analysis.Results: LS and SS by RT-SWE were feasible respectively in 87 (99%) and 58 (66%) patients. Both correlated with HVPG (LS: R = 0.611, p < 0.0001 and SS: R = 0.514, p < 0.0001). LS performed well for diagnosing CSPH (optimism corrected AUROC = 0.858). Reliability of measurements was influenced by standard deviation (SD)/median ratio and depth. SD/median
