Liver biopsy is still the golden standard for AIH diagnosis. However, it is an invasive procedure and these patients, most of the time, require many biopsies, so it would be valuable to search for noninvasive method that could select all these patients and keep under observation.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Thirty\u2010three patients with AIH were submitted for liver biopsy to evaluate histological remission after at least 18\u2009months of normal aminotransferases. The efficiency of LSM and fibrosis stages was tested by a receiver operating characteristic curve analysis (AUROC).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>One patient (3%) was F0, 6 (18.2%) were F1, 8 (24.2%) were F2, 10 (30.3%) were F3, and 8 (24.2%) were F4, according to METAVIR. Thirteen of thirty\u2010three (39.4%) patients did not achieve histological remission. AUROC for F4 stage was 0.83 (IC: 0.76\u20130.99) for TE and 0.78 (IC: 0.65\u20130.95) for ARFI. Optimal LSM cutoff values were 12.3\u2009kPa (Se\u00a0=\u00a087.5%, Sp\u00a0=\u00a088%) for TE and 1.65\u2009m\/s (Se\u00a0=\u00a087.5%, Sp\u00a0=\u00a076%) for ARFI.
