According to measurements made of the livers of 109 autopsy cases, the liver volume (V) and the ratio of the left liver lobe volume to the right liver lobe volume (VR) were V=0. 64 (depth×thickness×width of the left lobe)+0.67 (depth×thickness×width of the right lobe) VR=0.64 (depth×thickness×width of the left lobe)/0.67 (depth×thickness×width of the right lobe) making approximation possible. Measurement of the liver was made by ultrasonography and the mean values of V and VR obtained by the foregoing equations were 1368ml and 0.55 in the controls (41 cases), 1345ml and 0.63 in CHI (12 cases), 1358ml and 0.72 in CHA (16 cases), 1313ml and 0.87 in type B' (10 cases), and 1091ml and 1.01 in liver cirrhosis (26 cases), respectively, indicating that VR was useful in the early diagnosis of chronic liver disease.<BR>Blurring visualization of the hepatic vein in the ultrasonic image were observed in chronic liver disease.
