Background: The purpose of this study is to report on patients who showed improvement in liver function test results following the administration of Injinoryeong-san. Methods: A woman visited seeking herbal medicine prescription for symptoms of numbness in her hands and feet. Abnormal elevation of ALT and AST was observed in the blood test conducted before prescribing herbal medicine, so I administered IJORS. Results: After two weeks of taking IJORS, the patient's liver function test (LFT) returned to normal, and additional improvements were observed in symptoms such as indigestion and fatigue. Conclusion: LFTs are helpful in assessing the patient's liver function before prescribing herbal medicine. IJORS can be prescribed for patients with abnormal high LFTs.

MilJer DL, 0 ' Leary TJ , Girton Purpose: Li piodol CT is a important modality for the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma and compared is usually performed at 2 -3 week after Li piodol injection. Therefore , We assessed and the diagnostic value and merits of immediate CT after chemoembolization from there of 2-3 week delayed Li piodol CT.Materials and Methods: Thirty three cases of chemoembolization which were performed both immediate CT after chemoembolization and 2-3 week delayed Li piod 이 CT were reviewed retrospectively. They were divided into four grades according to pattern of lipiodol uptake by three radiologists. The diagnostic value of immediate Li piod 이 CT was compared to delayed Li piodol CT.Results: Grade 0 was two cases(3.0%) and Grade 1 was seven cases(21.2%). In the cases of Grade 2(23/33 , 69.7%) , tumor uptake could be dishng wished from parenchymal uptake of Li piodol by its density and pattern.Tumor uptake showed dense and homogeneous pattern , but parenchymal uptake revealed less dense and hepatogram -like wedge shaped pattern. Li piodol uptake of tumor in Grade 3(1/24 , 3.0%) was equal to that in delayed Li piodrl CT. Grade 3 and 2(72.7%) of the immediate Li piod 이 CT were not inferior to delayed Li piodol CT in its diagnostic value.Conclusion: The immediate Lipiodol CT could make rapid establishment of treatment plan and are expected to be more convenient than delayed CT for the patients.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
