Nuclear imaging techniques for the assessment of hepatic function in liver surgery and transplantation de Graaf W; Bennink RJ; Vetelainen R; van Gulik TMJ Nucl Med 2010[May]; 51 (5): 742-52This review describes the application of 2 nuclear imaging techniques for assessment of hepatic function in the setting of liver surgery and transplantation. The biochemical and technical background, as well as the clinical applications, of (99m)Tc-labeled diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid galactosyl human serum albumin (GSA) scintigraphy and hepatobiliary scintigraphy (HBS) with (99m)Tc-labeled iminodiacetic acid derivates is discussed. (99m)Tc-mebrofenin is considered the most suitable iminodiacetic acid agent for (99m)Tc-HBS. (99m)Tc-GSA scintigraphy and (99m)Tc-mebrofenin HBS are based on 2 different principles. (99m)Tc-GSA scintigraphy is a receptor-mediated technique whereas HBS represents hepatic uptake and excretion function. Both techniques are noninvasive and provide visual and quantitative information on both total and regional liver function. They can be used for preoperative assessment of future remnant liver function, follow-up after preoperative portal vein embolization, and evaluation of postoperative liver regeneration. In liver transplantation, these methods are used to assess graft function and biliary complications.|Animals[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Liver Function Tests/*methods[MESH]|Liver Transplantation/*diagnostic imaging[MESH]|Liver/*diagnostic imaging/surgery[MESH]|Radionuclide Imaging[MESH]|Radiopharmaceuticals[MESH]|Technetium Tc 99m Aggregated Albumin[MESH] |
