Summary

This clinical trial study aims to detect the imaging characteristics of patients with hepatic encephalopathy (HE) using 7-Tesla (7T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Detailed description

In this study, we analyzed the imaging characteristics of HE. First, with the advantages of 7TMRI, we analyzed the differences in imaging characteristics between HE patients and the healthy, including brain functional imaging and structural imaging. Second, we analyzed the differences in imaging characteristics between different subgroups of HE patients. Finally, we analyzed the correlation between the prognostic results of HE patients after follow-up and the imaging characteristics.

Conditions

• Hepatic Encephalopathy (HE)
• MRI
• fMRI Research
