Volume parameters of liver lobes for best identifying the presence and Child-Pugh class of liver cirrhosis, and predicting the presence of esophageal varices

Parameter Cut-off Differentiations Sensitivity Specificity
CV/ALB 0.6 No cirrhosis vs cirrhosis 82.0% 83.00%
RV (mm3) 508.9 Class A vs C 90.3% 84.5%
LLV/ALB 7.5 Class B vs C 93.8% 81.5%
LLV (mm3) 233.2 Class A vs B 74.4% 73.1%
RV/ALB (mm3) 20.46 No varices vs varices 80.0% 83.5%

RV: Right liver lobe volume; LMV: Left medial liver lobe volume; LLV: Left lateral liver lobe volume; CV: Caudate lobe volume; ALB: Albumin.
