Özet

Background: The primary aim of the study was to demonstrate parenchymal changes in the liver and pancreas related to copper accumulation using ultrasound in pediatric patients with Wilson's disease and secondly, to investigate the effectiveness of two-dimensional shear wave elastography in the diagnosis of involvement of these organs.
