Clinical Trial Summary

In this research study, the investigators will compare the liver stiffness results obtained from the current Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) method to liver stiffness results obtained from a method that uses faster imaging techniques.


Clinical Trial Description

MR elastography is increasingly used to assess liver stiffness in pediatric and adult patients with chronic liver diseases. While numerous tissue abnormalities can affect liver stiffness, liver stiffness measured by MR elastography is most often used to predict and quantify liver fibrosis. Conventional MR elastography techniques require multiple breath-holds that are 12-20 seconds in length. In the pediatric population, reliable breath-holding >10 seconds can be challenging. Recently, compressed sensing has become available as a method for accelerating image data acquisition, and thus shortening breath-holds. ;
