Imaging for NAFLD/NASH: Current State and Future Trends Webinar

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common diffuse liver disease, with a worldwide prevalence of 20-46 percent. NAFLD can be subdivided into simple steatosis and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are at risk of steatohepatitis and progressive liver fibrosis culminating in cirrhosis, typically over a period of decades. Early diagnosis and risk stratification are essential for effective management. Although liver biopsy is currently the gold standard for diagnosing progressive NASH, it has many drawbacks, such as sampling error, cost and risk of complications. Furthermore, it is not realistic to perform liver biopsies on all NAFLD patients. The limitations of liver biopsy have driven a search for non-invasive NAFLD screening and risk stratification methods. Since advanced fibrosis has been proven to be
