Assessment of the performance of a dual-sample oral cholate challenge test: The HepQuant DuO test

Michael P. McRae, Touraj Shokati, Uwe Christians, Steve M. Helmke, Gregory T. Everson | Clinica Chimica Acta | April 2025

Liver health is currently evaluated using nonspecific blood tests, fibrosis surrogates, and invasive procedures, none of which directly measure liver function and physiology. The validated HepQuant SHUNT test quantifies liver function and physiology and is linked to clinical outcomes. Herein we present the reliability of a simplified version, the dual-sample oral cholate challenge (HepQuant DuO) test. read more →
