Assessment of Future Remnant Liver Function Using Hepatobiliary Scintigraphy in Patients Undergoing Major Liver Resection [PDF]
(99m)Tc-mebrofenin hepatobiliary scintigraphy (HBS) was used as a quantitative method to evaluate liver function. The aim of this study was to compare future remnant liver function assessed by (99m)Tc-mebrofenin hepatobiliary scintigraphy with future remnant liver volume in the prediction of liver failure after major liver resection.Computed tomography

Hypertrophy of future liver remnant in unresectable liver cancer following radioembolization with resin microspheres [PDF]
specific: 4% vs 2%; other: 16% vs 15%. Cumulative 90-day all-cause mortality post-resection was 2 (8.0%) vs 2 (4.3%). All 4 cases were trisectionectomies (mCRC: 3; ICC: 1) and typically had Z1 prior chemotherapy line, pre-surgical comorbidities and suffered posthepatectomy multi-organ failure including liver failure.

Predicting post-hepatectomy liver failure based on future remnant liver function combined with future remnant liver volume using magnetic resonance imaging [PDF]
Abstract Purpose Significant advances have been made in image-based determinations of future remnant liver function, in attempts to better predict post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF). We have reported time-associated liver functional assessments using magnetic resonance imaging with liver-to-spleen signal intensity ratio increasing rate ...

Interobserver variability in the preoperative assessment of future liver remnant function using hepatobiliary scintigraphy [PDF]
Background Post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is a serious complication following hepatic resection and associated with a high mortality rate. The risk of PHLF can be estimated pre-resection by assessing the function of the future liver remnant (FLR ...

Future liver remnant volumetry: an E-AHPBA international survey of current practice among liver surgeons [PDF]
Accurate assessment of the future liver remnant (FLR) is crucial for predicting the risk of post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF). This survey aims to evaluate the current practices of liver surgeons regarding FLR volumetry and its clinical use.A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 212 liver surgeons to assess their use of FLR volumetry and ...
