| Core Tip |
Differentiating normal from pathologic liver fat storage in children could depend on technical measurements. Using MR-spectroscopy, a cut-off value of 6% demonstrates the best diagnostic performance, otherwise magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-PDFF cut-off value of 3.5% better discriminates normal weight from obese children. It is confirmed that MRS is an accurate and precise method for detecting non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in children. However, MRI-PDFF- is a feasible alternative to MRS for quantifying liver steatosis.
