A recent study conducted by researchers at Leiden University Medical Center in the Netherlands has found that a combination of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) and serum tests can accurately identify low-risk patients who have undergone liver transplants and are eligible to avoid invasive liver biopsies. The study, which included 131 adult and pediatric patients from the Netherlands, Portugal, and the United Kingdom, found that the combined score of mpMRI and serum tests had a high diagnostic accuracy in discriminating between no rejection and indeterminate or T-cell-mediated rejection. This noninvasive diagnostic approach has the potential to reduce the need for liver biopsies and effectively monitor the liver graft. [Extracted from the article] |
