Quantitative assessment of liver fat with magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy
TL;DR: Magnetic resonance (MR) techniques can decompose the liver signal into its fat and water signal components and therefore assess liver fat more directly than CT or US and are likely to be commercially available soon.

In vivo characterization of the liver fat 1H MR spectrum
Gavin Hamilton,Takeshi Yokoo,Mark Bydder,Irene Cruite,Michael E. Schroeder,Claude B. Sirlin,Michael S. Middleton +6 more
TL;DR: The triglyceride model can characterize human liver fat spectra, which allows more accurate determination of liver fat fraction from MRI and MRS, and agreed closely with spectroscopic measurement.

Quantification of Hepatic Steatosis with T1-independent, T2*-corrected MR Imaging with Spectral Modeling of Fat: Blinded Comparison with MR Spectroscopy
Sina Meisamy,Catherine D.G. Hines,Gavin Hamilton,Claude B. Sirlin,Charles A. McKenzie,Huanzhou Yu,Jean H. Brittain,Scott B. Reeder +7 more
TL;DR: T1-independent chemical shift-based water-fat separation MR imaging methods can accurately quantify fat over the entire liver, by using MR spectroscopy as the reference standard, when T2 correction, spectral modeling of fat, and eddy current correction methods are used.

Radiologic evaluation of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
Seung Soo Lee,Seong Ho Park +1 more
TL;DR: Current imaging methods used to evaluate hepatic steatosis, including the diagnostic accuracy, limitations, and practical applicability of each method are reviewed, and the potential role of elastography techniques in the evaluation of patients with NAFLD is described.

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy to measure hepatic triglyceride content: prevalence of hepatic steatosis in the general population
Lidia S. Szczepaniak,Pamela Nurenberg,David Leonard,Jeffrey D. Browning,Jason S. Reingold,Scott M. Grundy,Helen H. Hobbs,Robert L. Dobbins +7 more
TL;DR: MRS provides a sensitive, quantitative, noninvasive method to measure HTGC and, when applied to a large urban US population, revealed a strikingly high prevalence of hepatic steatosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial localization in NMR spectroscopy in vivo.
TL;DR: DRESS is a simple and versatile localization procedure that is readily adaptable to spectral relaxation time measurements by adding inversion or spin-echo refocusing pulses or to in vivo solvent-suppressed spectroscopy of proton (1H) metabolites using a combination of chemical-selective RF pulses.

Localized proton spectroscopy using stimulated echoes.
TL;DR: In this paper, a new method for spatially resolved NMR spectroscopy that takes advantage of stimulated echo signals is described, which is a single-step procedure minimizing rf power requirements and gradient switches.
