Fat-separated T1 mapping for liver function analysis on gadoxetic acid-enhanced MR imaging: 2D two-point Dixon Look-Locker inversion recovery sequence for differentiation of Child-Pugh class B/C from Child-Pugh class A/chronic liver disease
T1 values using Dixon watermap LLIR eliminated the confounding effect of fat and showed the correlation with serological and imaging markers of liver function. Adjusted T1, watermap adjusted T1, and postT1 showed the highest diagnostic performance in differentiating CP class B/C from CP-A/CLD.
