Baseline multi-organ MRI measures of structure and haemodynamics in the liver, spleen, heart and kidneys were collected in healthy volunteers, compensated cirrhosis (CC) and decompensated cirrhosis patients to benchmark the change in measures with disease severity. In a stable CC cohort, observed annually for 3 years, we show liver T₁, liver perfusion, superior mesenteric artery flow, spleen perfusion, and renal cortex T₁ (measures that predict negative liver related outcomes) have sufficient resolution to track disease progression.
