Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The main objective of this study is to explore if hepatocytes have a functional<br /><br>reserve capacity:<br /><br><br /><br>- Does oral food challenge potentiate hepatic function measured with<br /><br>99mTc-mebrofenin HBS? </p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The secondary objective of this study is to explore if patient*s age influences<br /><br>the liver function and the hepatic reserve capacity:<br /><br><br /><br>- Does initial liver function measured with 99mTc-mebrofenin HBS differ between<br /><br>young and elderly patients?<br /><br>- Does liver function after oral food challenge measured with 99mTc-mebrofenin<br /><br>HBS differ between young and elderly patients?</p><br>
