Abstract
The role of hepatic iron overload (HIO) in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) pathogenesis has not been fully elucidated.This study aimed to investigate the effect of HIO and examine the diagnostic usefulness of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based R2* quantification in evaluating hepatic iron content (HIC) and pathological findings in NAFLD.Prospective and retrospective.A prospective study of 168 patients (age, 57.2 ± 15.0; male/female,...
