The company suggests to use the S+‐probe in people 75 cm and adults with a skin–liver capsule distance 75 cm in fasting state and after intake of a standardized light meal (300 kcal). Results We examined 50 volunteers (26 female, 24 ± 3 years). Twenty‐two participants were in the TC ≤75 cm group and 28 in TC >75 cm group. LS values with the S+‐probe were 15% higher than with the M+‐probe in both groups (median difference 0.6 kPa, P Graphical extract was created using BioRender.com (TC, thoracic circumference; SCD, skin‐capsule distance). Lean adults with a thoracic circumference of |
