Abstract

 Magnetic resonance Elastography (MRE) is a constantly advancing technique for assessment of stiffness of tissues with newer technology and sequences. It is being increasingly used for the assessment of liver fibrosis. In this article, we discuss the Basic techniques, Principle, advantages and Clinical applications of Magnetic resonance Elastography (MRE) in the assessment of liver fibrosis, Image acquisi­tion and interpretation of liver MRE and different parts like Breast Elastography, Brain Elastography, Muscle Elastography are also discussed.

 

Key words:- Magnetic resonance Elastography (MRE),Liver fibrosis, Active Driver Passive Driver, Phase Contrast sequences
