Water content in the liver in vivo was determined in 89 patients (33 with normal liver and 56 with chronic liver disease), simultaneously with ultrasonography and histopathological examination. A part of each biopsy specimen was used for this purpose. The difference between wet and dry weights was calculated from the pre- and post-lyophilization weights. According to the attenuation type of ultrasonic images, the patients were divided into two groups, viz., patients of low attenuation type (i.e. patients with type I bright liver) and those of high attenuation type (i.e. with type II bright liver). As to water content, no significant difference was observed between the two groups. No correlation was found between liver water content and histopathology either. It is concluded that knowledge of correlation between numerous parameters is needed to clarify the reason of attenuation differences.
对89例患者(33例肝脏正常,56例患有慢性肝病)进行了体内肝脏含水量测定,同时进行了超声检查和组织病理学检查。每个活检标本的一部分用于此目的。通过冻干前后的重量计算湿重与干重之差。根据超声图像的衰减类型,将患者分为两组,即低衰减型患者(即I型肝脏明亮患者)和高衰减型患者(即II型肝脏明亮患者)。关于含水量,两组之间未观察到显著差异。肝脏含水量与组织病理学之间也未发现相关性。结论是,需要了解众多参数之间的相关性,以阐明衰减差异的原因。
