Representative out-of-phase MR images from a 62 year-old woman with type 2 diabetes and moderate steatosis.
<p>MR images obtained from breath-hold T1-weighted triple-echo spoiled gradient-echo sequence. ROI was manually drawn at the spectroscopic voxel location (segment V, colocalized with liver biopsy), as shown. ROI, region of interest.</p
