Primarybiliarycirrhosis(PBC) is a chroniccholestatic diseasein whichthere is a crucialneed for quantitative liver-functiontests.We havedevelopeda mixedsulfobro-mophthalein(BSP)-indocyaninegreen (ICG) test and haveapplieditto 15healthysubjects and 50 patientswith PBCtodetermineitsrelevancetothe histological severity of the disease.The two dyeswere administeredintrave-nouslyand sequentiallyas boluses.Plasmaconcentra-tionswere measuredover60 mm.Pharmacokineticanal-ysisof the plasmaeliminationcurvepermitted the calcu-lationof clearance,constantsk1 and k2, andthe retention percentageat 45 mm.In PBC patients,ICG kineticswere withinthe normalrange exceptfor thosewith stage IV disease (cirrhosis).BSP clearanceand the k2 constant were reducedin all ...
