Liver Fibrosis Quantification by Digital Whole Slide Imaging and Two Photon Microscopy with Second Harmonic Generation

Year: 2018

Type: article

Abstract: The progression of fibrosis in liver disease is the single most important pathologic process guiding patient prognosis and treatment decisions. Unfortunately, its histologic assessment is subjective, descriptive and non-quantitative. A more objective and uniform method is needed to assess fibrosis in order to optimize patient care. To that end, we employed two new quantitative imaging technologies to evaluate fibrosis.
