Quantification of Hepatic Steatosis With Different Ultrasound Frequency

Sponsor: Jong Keon Jang

Summary

The objective of this study is: (1) to compare the feasibility (technical successes rate and reliability) in measuring attenuation coefficient between two different frequencies (3MHz, 4MHz) of ultrasound beam; (2) to evaluate and compare the diagnostic performance of attenuation coefficient for steatosis using two different frequencies (3MHz, 4MHz) of ultrasound beam by comparison with the pathologic results acquired by liver biopsy or surgery.
