Synopsis

Diagnosing and staging liver fibrosis arouse worldwide concern, and the value of susceptibility-weighted Imaging (SWI) score combined with serum indexes in staging liver fibrosis is controversial. The objective of this study was to assess if SWI score combined with serum indexes could increase the accuracy of staging liver fibrosis. With the help of multivariate ordered logistic regression model, SWI score and serum indexes showed significant correlations with stages of liver fibrosis.
