Multiple noninvasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods have been described to detect liver fibrosis, including diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). The purpose of our study was to evaluate predictors of liver MRI DWI apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurements in pediatric patients with autoimmune liver disease, including the relationship between ADC measurements and liver stiffness.

To compare liver shear stiffness estimates obtained by Automatic Liver Elasticity Calculation (ALEC) processing of two-dimensional (2D) gradient-recalled echo (GRE) magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) data to stiffness values obtained from standard-of-care manual processing. Read More
