| Core Tip |
This study determined whether and how the combination of platelet count (PLT) with spleen volume and right liver volume (RV) at MRI could predict the Child-Pugh class of liver cirrhosis and esophageal varices (EV). We confirmed that the ratios of SV/PLT and SI/PLT increased with the progress of Child-Pugh class, PLT and RVPS (RV × PLT/SV) decreased with the progress of Child-Pugh class. As a new combined parameter, RVPS can be an optimized marker to identify the occurrence of cirrhosis and differentiate the CPS class. SV/PLT could be recommended for identifying the presence of EV. |
