Differentiation Between Heterozygotes and Homozygotes in Genetic Hemochromatosis by Means of a Histological Hepatic Iron Index: A Study of 192 Cases

1 Jan 1993

Abstract excerpt

The biochemical hepatic iron index, defined as the ratio of hepatic iron concentration (expressed as micromoles per gram dry weight) to age permits accurate prediction of genetic status in patients with genetic hemochromatosis. However, the hepatic iron concentration is not always available. Therefore a histological hepatic iron index, defined as the ratio of total histological iron score (range = 0 to 60) to...
