Fatty Liver, Fatty Liver, Nonalcoholic
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate diagnostic performance of quantitative ultrasonographic parameters for the assessment of hepatic steatosis with find optimal cut-off values in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease using magnetic resonance imaging proton density fat fraction (MRI-PDFF) and MR spectroscopy as the reference standard.
Interventions
In each patients, measurements of tissue attenuation imagine (TAI), tissue scatter-distribution imaging (TSI) parameters, hepatorenal index (EzHRI) will be performed

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* patients with known NAFLD or suspected of having NAFLD * Patients who are scheduled hepatectomy for living donor liver donation * aged ≥ 18 years who are willing and able to complete all procedures
Exclusion criteria
* excessive alcohol consumption within 2 years (40g/day for men, 20g/day for women) * clinical, laboratory, or histologic evidence of a liver disease other than NAFLD, including viral hepatitis, autoimmune hepatitis, or genetic or acquired disorders * use of steatogenic or hepatotoxic medication * evidence of decompensated liver disease * history of liver surgery * contraindication to MRI * any other condition believed by investigator to affect a patients' compliance, or completion of the study
