Fatty Liver and Liver Transplantation
Clinics in Liver Disease, 2009Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis are common complications of overnutrition and obesity. In the setting of worsening epidemics of obesity in developed and developing countries, the global prevalence and impact of NAFLD seems likely to increase.

Lipid lowering, particularly with 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase inhibitors ("statins"), reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease. Patients with chronic liver disease present challenges to the use of lipid medications. In the case of most liver disorders, the concern has been one of safety.

Liver transplantation for liver cancer
World Journal of Surgery, 1982AbstractResults in the first 100 orthotopic liver allografts performed in the Cambridge‐King's College Hospital series (1968–1980) are reported. Twenty‐two patients survived beyond a year (age range, 16–59 years). Of these, 12 were cirrhotics and 10 were primary malignancies. Of the cirrhotics, 10 are alive, with the 2 deaths resulting from cholangitis.

Liver Transplantation for Liver Tumors
1986Liver transplantation principally can be considered as a suitable form of treatment for any patient with progressive or end-stage liver disease, when no other standard therapy is available. The two main categories of indications are liver cirrhosis with severe complications from functional deterioration and primary malignancies of the liver.

Segmentation of liver and liver tumor for the Liver-Workbench
SPIE Proceedings, 2011Robust and efficient segmentation tools are important for the quantification of 3D liver and liver tumor volumes which can greatly help clinicians in clinical decision-making and treatment planning. A two-module image analysis procedure which integrates two novel semi-automatic algorithms has been developed to segment 3D liver and liver tumors from ...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Clinics of North America, 2005
In summary, MR imaging is superior to other imaging modalities, including CT, for the work-up of liver masses. The current challenge is whether the superior performance of MR imaging translates into a beneficial effect on patient management, disease outcome, and health care costs.

Journal of Hepatology, 1997
Apoptosis, also called programmed cell death, is a peculiar form of cell death different from cell necrosis in many morphological and biochemical aspects. Like mitosis or differentiation, apoptosis is a normal cell phenomenon which depends on the expression of genes capable of inducing or inhibiting this type of cell destruction. But apoptosis can also

Knowledge on the development and progression of liver fibrosis has grown exponentially in the past decade. At present, liver fibrogenesis is referred to as a dynamic process involving complex cellular and molecular mechanisms, resulting from the chronic activation of the tissue repair mechanisms that follows reiterated liver tissue injury.

Liver transplantation for alcoholic liver disease
Nature Reviews Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 1993Alcoholism is a disease of remission and relapse. A lapse in abstinence tends to be viewed as a failure to commit to abstinence, and an acknowledged relapse may lead to the patient's removal from the liver transplant list; however, such a relapse may actually offer insight into alcoholism.
