Histopathologic evaluation of liver biopsy has played a longstanding role in the diagnosis and management of liver disease. However, the utility of liver biopsy has been questioned by some, given the improved imaging modalities, increased availability of noninvasive serologic tests, and development of artificial intelligence over the past several years.
