Marked difference in liver fat measured by histology vs. magnetic resonance-proton density fat fraction: A meta-analysis

Background & Aims: Pathologists quantify liver steatosis as the fraction of lipid droplet-containing hepatocytes out of all hepatocytes, whereas the magnetic resonance-determined proton density fat fraction (PDFF) reflects the tissue triacylglycerol concentration. We investigated the lineari...
