To evaluate the efficacy and image processing time of the dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) exchange model in liver fibrosis staging and compare it to the efficacy of magnetic resonance elastography (MRE). The subjects were 45 patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) who underwen...
