HEPATIQ REPORT

The HEPATIQ report provides six indices of liver disease that may be used for diagnosis, staging, interventions, and monitoring disease progression. It includes color-coded serial and differential graphs and an interpretation of the quantitative indices. A sample report is shown below for illustration.
  • HEPATIQ Indices
  • The HEPATIQ report provides six indices of liver disease that may be used for diagnosis, staging, interventions, and monitoring disease progression.
  • (1) PHM - Quantitative Liver Function (normal ≥100). PHM indicates likelihood of liver decompensation. Patients with PHM < 95 have cirrhosis and a 15-fold increase in the risk of outcomes such as ascites, variceal bleeding, hepatic encephalopathy, and death.[4,5,6,8,13,14,16,17,18,22,23]
  • (2) fLV - Liver Volume (7 ≤ normal < 12). fLV indicates fatty liver disease when high and shrinking functional volume when low.[7,9,12,19,20,21,23]
  • (3) fSV - Spleen Volume (normal < 2.5). fSV provides a non-invasive measure of portal hypertension.[5,6,8,10,11,13,17,18] May be used for assessing a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS).
  • (4) HAI - Alcoholic Index (normal > -0.1). HAI indicates alcoholic hepatitis when low.[8,13,16,17,18,21,22]
  • (5) eFS - Fibrosis Stage (normal = 0, range 0 to 6). eFS estimates fibrosis stage and correlates with Ishak fibrosis.[5,6]
  • (6) eEV - Esophageal Varices (normal =0, range 0 to 3). eEV estimates presence and size of esophageal varices and the risk of bleeding.[5,6]
Differential Diagnostics(1) PHM and fLV can be used to differentiate steatohepatitis and non-steatotic cirrhosis.[7,8,9,12,19,20,23] (2) PHM and fLV reflect intrahepatic hemodynamics allowing differentiation of acute and chronic liver disease.[6,7,8,9,23] (3) PHM and fSV can be used to differentiate infiltrative spleen disease and cirrhotic portal hypertension.[6,10,13,17] (4) HAI and fLV allow differentiation of alcoholic steatohepatitis (ASH) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).[7,8,12,16,19,20,21]
Treatment Plans(1) Interventions: For HCC patients being considered for radioembolization or chemotherapy, PHM indicates possibility of post-intervention liver failure.[6,8,11,13] (2) Transplantation: For patients with severe liver disease but MELD score not high enough for transplant priority, low PHM may be used to justify a MELD exception for liver transplantation.[6,8,13,16] (3) Therapy: PHM provides objective monitoring of the efficacy of pharmacological, radiological or surgical therapies for the underlying causes of liver disease.[6,8,13,16,22,23] (4) Vigilance: HEPATIQ can provide early detection of progressive liver disease prompting a vigilant evaluation for complications.[22,23]
