Non-invasive evaluation of liver steatosis with imaging modalities: New techniques and applications

Figure 3 The attenuation measurement function technique was developed by Fujifilm Health Care company[4]. The attenuation coefficient (0.68 dB/cm/MHz) is measured in a fixed area (yellow box) along the same axis as the liver stiffness measurement. Ten acquisitions are performed, and the median value is utilized as the final metric.
