Abstract:
Liver pathology is the gold standard for the diagnosis of chronic hepatitis.Although there are many effective noninvasive diagnostic methods,liver pathology is still the most direct and reliable method for evaluating inflammation and fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis.The classification system for liver pathology has been also constantly changing,so as to provide more accurate information of grading and staging and to guide clinical and scientific research.This article reviews the development of classification systems for liver pathology,the basic criteria and disadvantages of each major classification system,and the prospects of pathological classification systems for chronic hepatitis.
