Dual-Energy Computed Tomography Versus Conventional Magnetic Resonance In-Phase/Opposed-Phase Imaging for Liver Fat Fraction Quantification: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Background/Objectives: Multiple imaging modalities are available for non-invasive hepatic fat quantification. We performed a hypothesis-generating methods-comparison study to compare liver fat fraction (FF) measurements obtained using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in-phase/opposed-phase (IP/OP) with dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) multi-material decomposition (MMD) techniques.
