No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of the study is to compare ultrasound measurements of the liver obtained prior to surgery on the skin to measurements obtained during surgery directly on the diseased liver. The objective is to determine if ultrasounds of the liver on the skin can provide accurate measurements of disease of the liver to provide an alternative option to liver biopsies.
