Abstract
Early detection of biliary atresia (BA) is important for optimal treatment. Direct bilirubin (D-bil) levels are used for BA screening. In this study, we aimed to determine the sensitivity and specificity of elevated D-bil and the direct-to-total bilirubin (D/T) ratio for BA detection in high-risk infants.
