Reproducibility of ultrasound-derived fat fraction in measuring hepatic steatosis
There is a lack of non-invasive quantitative measurement options for hepatic steatosis. UDFF demonstrated excellent reproducibility in measuring hepatic steatosis. S8, end-expiratory, supine, and fasting may be the more stable measuring condition. Training could improve the operators' measurement stability. Variable measurement state affects the repeatability of the UDFF values (Cov).
