[Study of the hepatobiliary system using 75Se-methionine in chronic hepatitis in remission]

The investigation of 43 patients with diffuse liver diseases in remission has shown that the results of studies on the hepatobiliary system using 75Se-methionine possess the highest informative value. These results were compared with those of a biochemical blood analysis and echolocation. In the absence of evident deviations from the results of biochemical blood tests and suspected diseases of the liver and biliary tracts the authors recommended first an investigation with methionine, and then depending on results, the use of other methods.
