Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This trial is a pivotal trial to validate the use of a 13 C labeled substrate called methacetin and the BreathID automatic breath testing system, for determination of cirrhosis in patients with chronic liver disease.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients with chronic liver disease who have a recent biopsy will be offered a breath test. Correlation will be shown between histology and breath test in determining cirrhosis.

CLD (chronic liver disease)

Chronic liver disease subjects with recent biopsy will be tested with a breath tests using a 13C enriched substrate metabolized by their liver

Group Type OTHER

c13 methacetin solution with breath analyzer

Intervention Type DEVICE

Carbon 13 methacetin 75mg dissolved in 150 ml is given to the subject and metabolism is measured by a breath analyzer after decomposed by the liver
