To explore the potential of histogram analysis to evaluate the liver fibrosis stages, histogram of T1rho and ADC were acquired from liver fibrosis model built in seventy-five rats by injecting 50% carbon tetrachloride and olive oil. In this study, we found that the parameters of histogram analysis showed strong correlations with liver fibrosis stages, as well as inflammatory activity，while T1rho is regarded to be better than ADC.
