Abstract:
Hepatic fibrosis (HF) is the inevitable process in development of cirrhosis. Early diagnosis and intervention of HF are of great clinical significances for prevention cirrhosis. In recent years, with the development of functional MRI (fMRI), it is not only possible to observe the morphological changes of HF, but also to understand the functional changes comprehensively, which is conducive to the early diagnosis of HF. The advantages of fMRI in diagnosis of HF were reviewed in this article.
