Core Tip Liver intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) diffusion-weighted imaging with multiple b-values was feasible and useful for evaluating hepatic steatosis and fibrosis in children. Hepatic steatosis and fibrosis affected IVIM parameters differently in children. MR proton density fat fraction (PDFF) demonstrated a positive correlation with the perfusion fraction (f) of IVIM. MR elastography (MRE) value was negatively correlated with the fast diffusion coefficient (D*) of IVIM. The other IVIM values were not influenced by PDFF or MRE value.
