Pancreatic islet transplantation: the radiographic approach.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Bone marrow cells (BMCs) are believed to have the ability to generate functional hepatocytes and have some merits as a therapeutic modality for metabolic liver diseases. However, the appearance of BMC-derived hepatocytes (BMDHs) is low. We hypothesized that early BMC injection would be feasible for creating ...
