Characterization of Frequency-Dependent Material Properties of Human Liver and its Pathologies Using an Impact Hammer [PDF]

Medical Image Analysis, 2011, Vol. 15, No.1, pp. 45-52, 2021
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.

Polycystic liver diseases [PDF]

Digestive and Liver Disease, 2010
Polycystic liver diseases (PCLDs) are genetic disorders with heterogeneous etiologies and a range of phenotypic presentations. PCLD exhibits both autosomal or recessive dominant pattern of inheritance and is characterized by the progressive development of multiple cysts, isolated or associated with polycystic kidney disease, that appear more extensive ...

Polycystic liver disease [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2014
A widespread use of ultrasound (US) examination is contributing to an increase in the diagnosis of renal and hepatic cysts. However, the vast majority of these lesions are benign with an indolent course during the patient's lifespan. Adult polycystic kidney disease (APKD) is one of the most common diagnosed entities.

Molecular Mechanisms of Isolated Polycystic Liver Diseases

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
Polycystic liver disease (PLD) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder including two genetically and clinically distinct forms: autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and isolated polycystic liver disease (PCLD).

Health disparities in chronic liver disease

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract The syndemic of hazardous alcohol consumption, opioid use, and obesity has led to important changes in liver disease epidemiology that have exacerbated health disparities. Health disparities occur when plausibly avoidable health differences are experienced by socially disadvantaged populations.

Proliferation-Independent Initiation of Biliary Cysts in Polycystic Liver Diseases. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Biliary cysts in adult patients affected by polycystic liver disease are lined by cholangiocytes that proliferate, suggesting that initiation of cyst formation depends on proliferation.
