Iterative decomposition of water and fat with echo asymmetry and least‐squares estimation (IDEAL): Application with fast spin‐echo imaging (2005, background): “, fatty liver in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (22), adrenal masses (23), etc.”
Genome-Wide Association Analysis Identifies Variants Associated with Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease That Have Distinct Effects on Metabolic Traits (2011, background): “is a quantitative measure that is inversely related to the amount of fat in the liver [10–12].”
Diagnostic value of a computerized hepatorenal index for sonographic quantification of liver steatosis. (2009, background): “Thus, the interpretation is observer-driven with interobserver and intraobserver variance and limited reproducibility and comparability [10, 17].”
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: the mist gradually clears. (2008, background): “Currently available imaging modalities including ultrasound, CT and routine MR imaging are all excellent at detecting steatosis (once more than around a third of the liver is affected) but none can reliably detect NASH or fibrosis [48].”
Validity of real time ultrasound in the diagnosis of hepatic steatosis: A prospective study (2009, positive): “In the present study, ultrasound was unable to discriminate between NASH and hepatic steatosis that was similar to previous reports [28].”
