Surgical Appropriateness of Imaging in Acute Cholecystitis: A Danish Audit
ABSTRACT Background Acute cholecystitis is a common surgical condition, most frequently caused by gallstones. Ultrasound is recommended as the first‐line imaging modality, while CT and MRCP are reserved for inconclusive cases or suspected complications. Increasing use of CT in Denmark raises concerns regarding unnecessary radiation exposure. This study

The use of transferrin isoforms to differentiate cholestatic liver diseases
Introduction There are two main chronic autoimmune cholestatic liver diseases, primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), which may lead to liver fibrosis or cirrhosis and consequent disturbances in protein and ...
