Summary

The investigators plan a prospective study designed to evaluate the accuracy of a new ultrasound method for quantification of liver fat content.

Detailed description

MRI proton density fat fraction (PDFF) will serve as the reference standard for liver fat fraction measurements. The strength of agreement between ultrasound derived fat fraction (UDFF) and PDFF will be the outcome of interest for this study.
