Abstract:
Liver histopathology plays an important role in the grading and staging of liver diseases and the etiological evaluation of unexplained liver diseases. Clinicians should fully understand the indications and contraindications for liver biopsy, the pathological features of liver diseases, the position and role of liver histopathology, and the importance of clinicopathological communication. This article reviews the above issues to help clinicians better apply liver histopathology as an invasive diagnostic method.
