Postprandial hepatic stiffness changes on magnetic resonance elastography in healthy volunteers

Abstract Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is a reliable noninvasive method for assessment of hepatic stiffness. Liver stiffness is known to be affected by elevated postprandial portal blood flow in patients with chronic liver disease. The goal of this study was to determine whether food intake...
