Non-invasive assessment of liver fibrosis by magnetic resonance elastography in patients with congenital heart disease undergoing the Fontan procedure and intracardiac repair
Abstract
BackgroundThe incidence of late liver complications such as fibrosis or cirrhosis has increased among patients who have undergone the Fontan procedure. Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) recently emerged as a technique to clinically evaluate liver fibrosis. However, few reports have described its use in evaluating liver fibrosis in children with congenital heart disease (CHD).Methods and resultsFifty-seven children were examined and divided...
