Clinical application of quantitative assessment of liver fibrosis based on pathology and imaging technology

DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-5256.2018.01.003

  • Liver fibrosis/cirrhosis is a common pathological outcome of chronic hepatic diseases, and an accurate assessment of the degree of liver fibrosis has an important reference value in a definite diagnosis, treatment decision-making, clinical outcome monitoring, and prognostic evaluation. Two quantitative assessment techniques are widely used at present: the quantitative assessment technique based on liver biopsy is the gold standard for identifying the exact liver fibrosis stage and evaluating the progression and reversion of liver fibrosis; the noninvasive quantitative assessment technique based on imaging technology plays an important role in dynamic monitoring and prognostic prediction of liver fibrosis due to its repeatability. This article summarizes the development and application of these two quantitative assessment techniques to provide guidance for clinical practice.
