Abstract:
Assessment of liver function reserve has important clinical significance,which can be used to decide the safe range of liver resection,to identify the potential liver injury early,to evaluate the treatment effect and to predict the prognosis of middle/end-stage liver diseases.There are a number of methods to assess liver function reserve.The indocyanine green (ICG) elimination test is the most commonly used and widely acknowledged approach for this assessment.With the development of functional imaging,evaluation of liver function reserve can be non-or minimalinvasive,more convenient and accurate.The application of imaging in assessment of liver function reserve and the relationship with ICG elimination test were reviewed in this article.
