    Abstract:
    The 1990s have been an exciting time for the field of hepatology. There has been a rapid expansion of knowledge, and new discoveries have revolutionized the field. It is now possible to characterize and treat many more liver diseases. Newer medications in the form of interferon alfa and nucleoside analogues have been added to the armamentarium for treatment of chronic viral hepatitis. Liver transplantation has been established as an effective therapy for patients with end-stage liver disease.
