Accurate diagnosis, monitoring and treatment decisions in patients with chronic liver disease
currently rely on biopsy as the diagnostic gold standard, and this has constrained early …

The aim of this work was to validate a sequential method for quantifying the triglyceride fatty
acid composition with 3.0 T MRI. The image acquisition was performed with a 3D spoiled …

Purpose To characterize the effect of fat on modified Look–Locker inversion recovery
(MOLLI) T1 maps of the liver. The balanced steady‐state free precession (bSSFP) sequence …

Purpose To develop a fast MR fingerprinting (MRF) sequence for simultaneous estimation of
water T1 (T1H2O) and fat fraction (FF) in fat infiltrated skeletal muscles. Methods The MRF …

Aims To compare body composition, visceral adiposity, adipocytokines, and low-grade
inflammation markers in prepubertal offspring of mothers who were treated with metformin or …

Non‐alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is characterized at histology by steatosis, hepatocyte
ballooning and inflammatory infiltrates, with or without fibrosis. Although diamagnetic …

Introduction: Obesity is associated with an increased risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
(NAFLD). While Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive gold standard to …

Background Overweight and obesity are major worldwide health concerns characterized by
an abnormal accumulation of fat in adipose tissue (AT) and liver. Purpose To evaluate the …

Purpose To develop an MRI method for quantifying hepatic fat content and visceral adipose
tissue fatty acid composition in mice on a 7.0 T preclinical system. Methods MR acquisitions …

The aim of the study is to investigate if the fat content of the liver and pancreas may indicate
impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A total of 83 subjects …
