[Expert judgement in liver disease (author's transl)].
Expert judgement on duration and extent of unfitness for work in various liver diseases is rather uniform nowadays. Problems are more often encountered when causal relationships have to be established or excluded, especially in medical personal suffering from liver disease. Since several years, however, the medical expert may relay upon more sophisticated diagnostic tools supplied by progress of virology of hepatitis. Further improvement of these tools within the next years is to be expected. This progress may as well facilitate judgement of causal relationships between effects of diseases occurred during the war and liver disease of recent origin. The medical expert in the field of hepatology has to be well acquainted with all recent knowledge and research results in virus hepatitis.
