Abstract

The liver biopsy is essential to the investigation and management of chronic liver disease. The pathologist provides an etiologic diagnosis, reports the grade of disease activity and stage of fibrosis, and comments on any response to therapy. Recent progress in our understanding of chronic hepatitis, its causes, prognosis, and therapy, has influenced the revision of its nomenclature and classification. The use of a descriptive or numerical scoring system allows the pathologist to provide reproducible, clinically relevant information in the surgical pathology report.

摘要

肝活检对于慢性肝病的检查和治疗至关重要。病理学家提供病因诊断，报告疾病活动度分级和纤维化阶段，并对治疗反应作出评价。我们对慢性肝炎及其病因、预后和治疗的理解取得的最新进展，已影响到其命名和分类的修订。使用描述性或数字评分系统可使病理学家在外科病理报告中提供可重复的、临床相关的信息。
