Fatty Liver Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effect of Focused Ultrasound on Abdominal and Intrahepatic Fat in Patients With Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
In recent years, a number of modalities have become available for the noninvasive reduction
of adipose tissue. One of those is high intensity focused ultra sound (HIFU). The study aimed
to discover the effect of Focused Ultrasound on localized abdominal fat size in fatty liver
patients.
Methods: In total, 40 participants with a body mass index (BMI) 30-40 kg/m2, whose age ranged
between 30 and 45 years, mild to moderate fatty liver (Liver to Spleen ratio < 1), and with
waist-hip ratio (WHR) greater than 0.8 for females and greater than 0.95 for males were
included. The participants were randomly assigned to two groups, one group received focused
ultrasound, diet, and exercises (the study group) and the other group received exercises, and
diet only (the control group), respectively. Measures were abdominal subcutaneous fat volume,
abdominal visceral fat volume, and liver to spleen ratio (L/S ratio) were measured at the
beginning of the study and 3 months later.
