3D molecular MR imaging of liver fibrosis and response to rapamycin therapy in a bile duct ligation rat model

Background & Aims Liver biopsy, the gold standard for assessing liver fibrosis, suffers from limitations due to sampling error and invasiveness. There is therefore a critical need for methods to non-invasively quantify fibrosis throughout the entire liver. The goal of this study was to use mo...
