MRI-Based Quantitation of Hepatic Steatosis Does Not Predict Hypertrophy Rate after Portal Vein Embolization in Patients with Colorectal Liver Metastasis and Normal to Moderately Elevated Fat Fraction

MRI-Based Quantitation of Hepatic Steatosis Does Not Predict Hypertrophy Rate after Portal Vein Embolization in Patients with Colorectal Liver Metastasis and Normal to Moderately Elevated Fat Fraction

The aim of this study was to correlate the pre-procedural magnetic-resonance-imaging-based hepatic fat fraction (hFF) with the degree of hypertrophy after portal vein embolization (PVE) in patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRCLM). Between 2011 November and 2020 February, 68 patients...
