Liver Elastography: Clinical Use and Interpretation

Editat de Sebastian Mueller
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 iun 2020
This is the first comprehensive book on the new elastographic techniques discussing the early assessment of liver fibrosis. The book covers all aspects of measuring liver stiffness starting from the methodology, the molecular basis of liver stiffness elevation up to current clinical algorithms and interpretation. Future directions and novel implications that go beyond diagnosis but are relevant for understanding of liver cirrhosis per se are also discussed in detail.
Liver Elastography, is an essential companion for hepatologists and gastroenterologists that provides an overview of its basic principles and gives a detailed account of how to use elastrography in clinical practice.

Recenzii

“This book is not aimed at radiology departments but rather at our colleagues in hepatotology and gastroenterology with the aim to offer them a deeper understanding of the role that elastography, in all its iterations, has in the assessment and management of liver disease. The book is very well written and edited … .” (Colin Griffin, RAD Magazine, May, 2021)

Notă biografică

Sebastian Mueller is Professor of Medicine and the current vice head of the Department of Internal Medicine at Salem Medical Center and the Co-Director of the Center for Alcohol Research at the University of Heidelberg. He studied medicine in Leipzig, Denver and Strasbourg and obtained a PhD in Biophysics in 1994. He was gastroenterology resident and consultant in Heidelberg, postdoctoral Humboldt fellow at USC in Los Angeles and lecturer at the BIDMC/Harvard Medical School from 2005-2007. Prof. Mueller’s translational research includes the pathophysiology, genetics, diagnosis and treatment of liver diseases, namely alcoholic liver disease. His longterm basic research interests focus on hepatic iron metabolism and redox regulation. Prof. Mueller has published more than 100 original articles.
