Synopsis

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between water T1 and T2 estimated by Flip Angle Corrected Multi-Parameter (CMP) MRS and biopsy-determined fibrosis. The sample of twenty-eight subjects with biopsy and MRS data is part of a dual-center, weight loss surgery study. Subjects without fibrosis were found to have significantly higher CMP MRS T1 water values than patients with fibrosis.
