NUMEROUS attempts have been made for over half a century to measure the function of the liver by one or another test; these procedures have been proposed for several purposes. First, in cases in which the diagnosis is entirely obscure, it has been hoped that the presence of liver disease might be ruled in or out.

Characterization of Frequency-Dependent Material Properties of Human Liver and its Pathologies Using an Impact Hammer [PDF]
The current methods for characterization of frequency-dependent material properties of human liver are very limited. In fact, there is almost no data available in the literature showing the variation in dynamic elastic modulus of healthy or diseased human liver as a function of excitation frequency.

Attention-based CT Scan Interpolation for Lesion Segmentation of Colorectal Liver Metastases [PDF]
Small liver lesions common to colorectal liver metastases (CRLMs) are challenging for convolutional neural network (CNN) segmentation models, especially when we have a wide range of slice thicknesses in the computed tomography (CT) scans. Slice thickness of CT images may vary by clinical indication.

Development of a decision support tool to facilitate primary care management of patients with abnormal liver function tests without clinically apparent liver disease [HTA03/38/02]. Abnormal Liver Function Investigations Evaluation (ALFIE) [PDF]
Liver function tests (LFTs) are routinely performed in primary care, and are often the gateway to further invasive and/or expensive investigations.
