Core Tip

Core Tip: We studied whether the indocyanine green retention rate at 15 min (ICG-R15) can be used for prediction of post-transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) hepatic encephalopathy (HE) in decompensated cirrhosis patients with portal hypertension (PHT) and compare the clinical value of ICG-R15, Child-Pugh score, and model for end-stage liver disease score in predicting post-TIPS HE with PHT.
