Synopsis

Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) depicts the viscoelastic properties of soft tissues for diagnosis of various diseases such as tumors or fibrosis. However, different MRE inversion methods yield different results. This lack of comparability of different MRE inversion results hinders the dissemination of advanced reconstruction methods. Therefore, we here introduce an extensible, open-access web platform that offers multiple inversion techniques for multifrequency, three-dimensional MRE to promote comparison of values. We demonstrate the utility of the platform in phantom data and in vivo free-breathing multifrequency MRE data of the kidneys of healthy volunteers.
