Altered brain structure in cirrhotic patients have been seen in previously reported studies. Many studies focus on the grey matter change of the caudate putamen, while few study investigate the relationship of thalamus grey matter change and cirrhotic symptoms. Our study reveal that the grey matter density of thalamus is closely correlated with the clinical makers of the cirrhosis, which may help to clarify the mechanism of the thalamus structural change.
