Официальное название
Development and Diagnostic Evaluation of a Novel Quantifiable Ultrasound Based Multi-parametric Biomarker for Hepatic Steatosis in Patients With Suspected MASLD ( LYNX )
Обзор
The research study is considering a non-invasive way to measure the percentage of fat in the liver using ultrasound. This could help detect early signs of a very common condition called metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Current tests, like MRI or biopsy, can be expensive or invasive. If successful, this ultrasound tool could become an easier and more accessible way to monitor liver health - especially for people with obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol.
Подробное описание
The objective is to develop a novel multiparametric ultrasound-based technique to quantify the amount of steatosis in the liver by using the current MRI-based gold-standard - MRI proton density fat fraction (MRI-PDFF) as a clinical reference. This clinical development study will only collect the required dataset from healthy volunteers and subjects with different degrees of steatosis in the liver, particularly patients with MASLD, formerly non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). It will capture the raw radiofrequency data required for the development of this new radiologic biomarker on a research ultrasound imaging device. In addition, various other clinical and radiological datasets will be captured to support the ground truthing, development and training of the novel ultrasound-based multiparametric biomarker.
