Liver fibrosis is characterized by the accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins such as
collagen in the liver interstitial space. All causes of chronic liver disease may lead to fibrosis …

Liver magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is subject to continuous technical innovations
through advances in hardware, sequence and novel contrast agent development. In order to …

Purpose To test at 1.5 T whether T1ρ magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of fibrotic liver
disease is feasible, to investigate whether liver T1ρ imaging allows assessment of the …

Purpose To introduce a blind compressed sensing (BCS) framework to accelerate multi‐
parameter MR mapping, and demonstrate its feasibility in high‐resolution, whole‐brain and …

Objectives To determine whether bi‐or tri‐exponential models, and full or segmented fittings,
better fit the intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) imaging signal of healthy livers. Methods …

Objectives Recently it was shown that the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) T1ρ value
increased with the severity of liver fibrosis in rats with bile duct ligation. Using a rat carbon …

Abstract Purpose of Review The purpose of this review is to discuss the current imaging
techniques for non-invasive assessment of liver fibrosis (LF). Recent Findings Elastography …

Objectives The purpose of this study was to compare mean liver T 1ρ values in patients with
liver cirrhosis and healthy control subjects in order to evaluate T 1ρ as a potential MR …

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 …

Purpose This study was aimed to determine whether pure molecular-based diffusion
coefficient (D) and perfusion-related diffusion parameters (perfusion fraction f, perfusion …
