A predictive model combining multiple ultrasonic parameters could discriminate between different liver diseases in a study published March 19 in Radiology. A team of researchers led by Fangyi Liu, MD, from the Chinese PLA General Hospital in Beijing, found that their multiparametric ultrasound model can predict metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) in patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), regardless of hepatitis B virus infection status.

That is, it is diagnosed after a test whose result was negative and before the next evaluation. For obvious reasons, it is a very reliable indicator of the effectiveness of early detection programs for this disease: if the number of cancers that appear after a screening is high, it is a sign that the program is not working.

Magnetic resonance (MR) is a dynamic and flexible technology that allows one to tailor the imaging study to the anatomic part of interest and to the disease process being studied. With its dependence on the more biologically variable parameters of proton density, longitudinal relaxation time (T1), and transverse relaxation time (T2), variable image contrast can be achieved by using different pulse sequences and by changing the imaging parameters.
