Hepatic steatosis is a key histological feature of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
The non-invasive quantification of liver fat is now possible due to advances in imaging …

This multidisciplinary update of the Society of Radiologists in Ultrasound consensus
statement on liver elastography incorporates the large volume of new information available …

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease
worldwide, with an estimated prevalence of up to 30% in the general population and higher …

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the leading cause of diffuse liver disease. An
accurate estimate of the fat in the liver is important in the diagnostic work-up of patients with …

The prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasing rapidly worldwide
as the obese and diabetic populations increase, and it has been estimated to be 20–30% in …

New ultrasound methods that can be used to quantitatively assess liver fat content have
recently been developed. These quantitative ultrasound (QUS) methods are based on the …

Background Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is diagnosed with histopathologic testing,
but noninvasive surrogate markers are desirable for screening patients who are at high risk …

Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) aims at quantifying interactions between ultrasound and
