Estimating liver function in a large cirrhotic cohort: Signal intensity of gadolinium-ethoxybenzyl-diethylenetriamine penta-acetic acid-enhanced MRI

摘要

Background: To assess whether gadolinium-ethoxybenzyl-diethylenetriamine penta-acetic acid enhanced MRI study is useful to estimate liver function in comparison to the presence or absence of cirrhosis, Child Pugh (CP), Model for End-stage Liver Disease (MELD), ALBI scores and biochemical test.
