Prediction of posthepatectomy liver failure using transient elastography in patients with hepatitis B related hepatocellular carcinoma
BACKGROUND It is essential to accurately predict Postoperative liver failure (PHLF) which is a life-threatening complication. Liver hardness measurement (LSM) is widely used in non-invasive assessment of liver fibrosis. The aims of this study were to explore the application of preoperative liver stiffness measurements (LSM) by transient elastography in predicting postoperative liver failure (PH...
متن کاملRisk Assessment of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Using Transient Elastography Vs. Liver Biopsy in Chronic Hepatitis B Patients Receiving Antiviral Therapy
Liver stiffness (LS) assessed using transient elastography (TE) can assess the risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We evaluated whether TE, when compared with histological data as a reference standard, can predict the risk of HCC development in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients starting antiviral therapy.Observational cohort database of 381 patients with CHB who underwent liver ...
متن کاملPreoperative assessment of postoperative remnant liver function using hepatobiliary scintigraphy.
UNLABELLED Hepatic resection is the therapy of choice for malignant and symptomatic benign hepatobiliary tumors. The concept of remnant liver volume (RLV) has been introduced and can be assessed with CT. However, inhomogeneous liver function distribution and a lack of correlation between morphologic hypertrophy and functional recovery fuelled the enthusiasm for functional imaging. The aim of th...
متن کاملIncreased risk of hepatocellular carcinoma in chronic hepatitis B patients with transient elastography-defined subclinical cirrhosis.
UNLABELLED Early detection of liver cirrhosis in its subclinical stage is of paramount importance to identify high-risk individuals for developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study investigated whether transient elastography (TE) can identify patients with subclinical cirrhosis (SCC) who are at increased risk of developing HCC among chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients without clinical e...
متن کاملHepatobiliary Scintigraphy in Patients with Bile Leaks
Hepatobilillry scintigraphy has been recognized as u useful tool in detecting the presence and sites of bile leaks. The clinical settings in which bile leaks are likely to occur, as weU as some of the scintigraphic patterns seen in patients with bile leaks, are reviewed here. lips for technologists are offered on interventions that might enhance the quality of information available to the nucle...
