Liver fibrosis is an important pathological precondition for hepatocellular carcinoma. The
degree of hepatic fibrosis is positively correlated with liver cancer. Liver fibrosis is a series of …

Chronic liver disease is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Current
strategies for assessing prognosis and treatment rely on accurate assessment of disease …

Purpose To assess the diagnostic efficacy of multiparametric MRI using quantitative
measurements of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of the liver parenchyma on …

Magnetic resonance (MR) identification and grading of subjects with liver fibrosis and
inflammation represents a clinical challenge. MR elastography plays a well-defined role in …

Purpose To assess the feasiblity of magnetic resonance (MR) susceptibility-weighted (SW)
imaging as a tool to evaluate liver fibrosis grades in patients with chronic liver diseases …

Purpose This study was done to prospectively evaluate the usefulness of apparent diffusion
coefficient (ADC) in the diagnosis and grading of hepatic fibrosis and inflammation in …

BACKGROUND Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging has shown promise in the
detection and quantification of hepatic fibrosis. In addition, the liver has numerous …

Objectives To prospectively verify, in vivo, Le Bihan's model of signal decay in magnetic
resonance/diffusion-weighted imaging (intravoxel incoherent motion) in healthy liver …

Purpose To retrospectively determine the feasibility of intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM)
imaging based on histogram analysis for the staging of liver fibrosis (LF) using …

Purpose To prospectively evaluate the effect of gadoxetic acid (Gd‐EOB‐DTPA; Primovist,
Bayer‐Schering, Berlin, Germany) on quantitative diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI) using …
