Synopsis

LiverScope® is a novel point-of-care (POC) NMR technology for liver fat quantification.

· POC NMR PDFF agreed closely with ground-truth PDFF values in commercial PDFF phantoms (R² = 0.99)

· POC NMR was feasible in an outpatient clinic, had no demonstrated adverse events, and agreed closely with contemporaneous MRI-PDFF reference standard values (R² = 0.94) in human adults with obesity and at risk for NAFLD:
