Quantitative estimation of progression of chronic liver disease using gadoxetate disodium‐enhanced magnetic resonance imaging

Aim The purpose of this study was to determine whether the liver stiffness (LS) measured on magnetic resonance (MR) elastography can be estimated by a combination of gadoxetate disodium‐enhanced MR imaging (EOB‐MRI) and ordinary blood tests. Methods We evaluated 33 consecutive patients with suspected liver disease who underwent EOB‐MRI using a Differential Subsampling with Cartesian Ordering MR sequence and MR elastography using a 1.5‐T MR...
