Association Between Early and Long-Term Changes in Liver Stiffness in Patients with MASLD Undergoing Serial Magnetic Resonance Elastography [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) provides an accurate and reproducible non-invasive assessment of liver stiffness and fibrosis severity in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Although longitudinal

Liver Stiffness Directs Intrahepatic Cholesterol Accumulation Through YAP/TAZ in Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease [PDF]
Elevated liver stiffness is closely associated with morbidity and mortality in metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). However, the contribution of increased stiffness to impaired liver function is poorly understood.

Postprandial hepatic stiffness changes on magnetic resonance elastography in healthy volunteers
Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is a reliable noninvasive method for assessment of hepatic stiffness. Liver stiffness is known to be affected by elevated postprandial portal blood flow in patients with chronic liver disease.
