Temporal trends in utilization of abdominal magnetic resonance imaging in patients with liver diseases in the US
Impact: Results reveal rising use of abdominal MRI in patients with
liver diseases as well as disparities by demographics. These findings emphasize
the importance of further understanding the reasons for these differences to
guide future strategies for access and policy improvements.

Assessment of Hepatic Mechanical Pulsatility Using Cardiac-Resolved MR Elastography
Impact: Cardiac-resolved MR elastography
with an interleaved spiral readout enables dynamic mapping of hepatic stiffness
synchronized to the cardiac cycle, providing a motion-robust approach for quantifying
vascular compliance and perfusion-driven stiffness modulation in the liver.

Respiratory-Resolved 3D Volumetric MRI and Elastography towards Non-Invasive Assessment of Portal Pressure
Impact: Volume and shear modulus changes in the liver and spleen
were quantified across respiratory and prandial states using 3D MRI and
multifrequency MRE, improving understanding of blood-volume redistribution and
portal-pressure effects on organ biomechanical properties.

Imaging Biomarkers of Cirrhosis: Functional Liver Imaging Score and Liver Surface Nodularity Correlations with MELD-Na
Impact: The Functional Liver Imaging Score (FLIS) and Liver Surface Nodularity (LSN) are non-invasive MRI biomarkers used to evaluate cirrhosis severity. The MELD-Na score remains the standard for transplant assessment. Combining these can improve the non-invasive evaluation of cirrhosis severity.

MR elastography-based quantitative parameters for assessing CD8+ T cell infiltration in HCC
Impact: Magnetic resonance
elastography (MRE)-based tumor stiffness, stiffness heterogeneity, and peritumoral
shear strain significantly correlate with intratumoral and invasive marginal CD8+
infiltration in HCC, highlighting their potential as noninvasive imaging biomarkers
for risk stratification and immunotherapy guidance.

Feasibility of Deep-Learning Based Synthesis of Gadoxetic Acid–Enhanced Hepatobiliary Phase Liver MRI
Impact: The deep learning-based synthesis
approach enables synthesis of HBP images without Eovist contrast, potentially
allowing faster and safer liver imaging for patients, especially those with
liver metastasis who require frequent follow-up scans.

Performance comparison of gadoxetic and extracellular MRI in diagnosing subcentimeter recurrent HCC: a modified algorithm
Impact: Our findings demonstrated that the EOB-MRI–based modified algorithm markedly improved sensitivity over typical vascular patterns and ECA-MRI, while maintaining high specificity, supporting a more sensitive diagnostic strategy for subcentimeter recurrent HCC and ultimately improving patient management and prognosis.

Habitat Radiomics of Multi-parametric MRI Predicts Treatment Response and Survival in Colorectal Liver Metastases
Impact: Habitat-guided radiomics provides a robust, non-invasive tool to predict treatment response and survival in liver metastases, enabling early identification of non-responders and supporting personalized oncology decision-making.

The value of MR elastography for predicting VETC in hepatocellular carcinoma within 5 cm
Impact: MRE is a potential technique for assessing VETC status in HCC within 5cm, which may assist in the optimization of personalized treatment strategies for patients with HCC within 5 cm, thus leading to a reduction in early recurrence rates.
