In vivo percutaneous reflectance spectroscopy of fatty liver development in rats suggests that the elevation of the scattering power is an early indicator of hepatic steatosis
This study assessed whether there was a scattering spectral marker quantifiable by reflectance measurements that could indicate early development of hepatic steatosis in rats for potential applications to pre-procurement organ evaluation. Sixteen rats were fed a methionine-choline-deficient (MCD) di...
