1. The interplay between bile acids and gut microbiota in metabolic and hepatobiliary disease
Sammanfattning : The gut microbiota, a metabolic regulator, orchestrates the production of bioactive metabolites such as secondary bile acids. Growing evidence suggests that shifts in the gut microbiota composition are linked to metabolic and hepatobiliary disease. LÄS MER
2. Quantitative Magnetic Resonance in Diffuse Neurological and Liver Disease
Sammanfattning : Introduction: Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is one of the most important diagnostic tools in modern medicine. Compared to other imaging modalities, it provides superior soft tissue contrast of all parts of the body and it is considered to be safe for patients. LÄS MER
3. Quantitative Evaluation of Contrast Agent Dynamics in Liver MRI
Sammanfattning : The studies presented here evaluate the biliary, parenchymal and vascular enhancement effects of two T1-shortening liver-specific contrast agents, Gd-BOPTA and Gd-EOB-DTPA, in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of healthy subjects and of patients.Ten healthy volunteers were examined with both contrast agents in a 1.

4. Aspects on advanced procedures during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for complex hepatobiliary disorders
Sammanfattning : Background: The rapid development in endoscopic technology and associated skills has led to an increase in more advanced procedures being performed during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Knowledge is limited regarding clinical value, integration, and outcomes for single operator cholangiopancreatoscopy (SOCP) and endoscopic intervention in the different Bismuth-Corlette (B-C) locations in the hepatic hilum.

5. Autoimmune hepatitis : life, death and in-between
Sammanfattning : Background Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic autoimmune liver disease that is overrepresented in women (75% of cases). Studies have described a 10-year survival after diagnosis near to that of the general population, but less is known about the long-term survival. LÄS MER
