Abstract
CT scan measures of topographical brain changes, liver status as determined by biopsy, and clinical factors were studied in a group of detoxified chronic alcoholic patients. It was found that greater topographical brain changes were associated with greater severity of liver disease.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
