Liver volumetry in cirrhotic patients with or without hepatocellular carcinoma: Its correlation with Child-Pugh, model for end-stage liver diseases and indocyanine green dye test.

NTLV showed a significant negative correlation with ICG-r15% in cirrhotic patients with HCC, but not in cirrhotic patients without HCC. Therefore, CT volumetry can be a valuable tool to predict the functional hepatic volume in patients of cirrhosis with HCC subjected for hepatectomy, where a facility of ICG-r15% is not available. However, further studies are needed to validate our findings in cirrhotic only patients.
