Comparison of ultrasound-derived fat fraction and hepatorenal index for quantitative detection of hepatic steatosis: a multicenter MRI-PDFF-referenced study
Background MRI-PDFF enables accurate non-invasive quantification of liver fat, but its routine use is limited by cost, availability, and workflow constraints. Ultrasound-derived fat fraction (UDFF) may offer a more accessible quantitative alternative, yet its added value over the conventional hepatorenal index (HRI) re...
