    The multiple indicator dilution technique accurately models liver tracer recovery. This study validates the technique, restoring confidence in its use for assessing liver function and substance uptake kinetics.

    Area of Science:

    • Hepatology
    • Pharmacokinetics
    • Quantitative Biology

    Background:

    • The multiple indicator dilution technique is standard for assessing liver tracer kinetics.
    • Previous studies questioned the validity of model analyses for hepatic venous outflow curves.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To reexamine the validity of multiple indicator dilution modeling for liver tracer uptake.
    • To experimentally validate theoretical expressions for tracer recovery and outflow.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of three datasets (bilirubin, free fatty acid, galactose uptake).
    • Utilized the rapid, single injection, multiple indicator dilution technique.
    • Modeled hepatic venous outflow curves to assess tracer cell entry and intracellular sequestration.

    Main Results:

    • Excellent agreement found between experimentally determined cumulative tracer recovery and theoretically predicted recovery.
    • Validated the theoretical recovery expression for hepatic kinetics.
    • Demonstrated the self-consistency of multiple indicator dilution data analysis procedures.

    Conclusions:

    • The validated theoretical recovery expression enables rapid calculation of outflow recovery.
    • Restores confidence in the accuracy and reliability of multiple indicator dilution techniques for liver kinetics.
    • Provides a robust method for quantitative kinetic assessment in liver research.
