Purpose To evaluate and validate the reproducibility of MR Elastography (MRE)-derived
liver stiffness values on two different MR vendor platforms performed on the same subject on …

Objectives To explore the utility of liver T1 mapping in Fontan patients and its correlation to
magnetic resonance elastography (MRE)-derived liver stiffness. Background and aims Liver …

Chronic injury to the liver leads to inflammation and hepatocyte necrosis, which when
untreated can lead to myofibroblast activation and fibrogenesis with deposition of fibrous …

In adults with chronic liver diseases, ultrasound and magnetic resonance shear wave
elastography (SWE) can replace liver biopsy in several clinical scenarios. Several …

BACKGROUND A recent retrospective study confirmed that hepatic stiffness and splenic
stiffness measured with magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) are strongly associated …

Objectives: Adult studies have proven ultrasound elastography as a validated measure of
liver fibrosis. The present study aimed to review the available literature on ultrasound …

Purpose To determine if healthy hepatic mechanical properties differ between pediatric and
adult subjects at magnetic resonance (MR) elastography. Materials and Methods Liver shear …

Purpose To use MR elastography to assess liver stiffness in patients with congenital heart
disease palliated with the Fontan procedure and correlate findings with cardiac index and …

Non-Alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the leading cause of chronic liver disease in
children. Epigenetic alterations, such as through DNA methylation (DNAm), may link …

Non-invasive diagnosis and quantification of liver steatosis is important to overcome limits of
liver biopsy, in order to follow up patients during their therapy and to establish a reference …
