Is t1rho MR imaging sensitive to evaluate liver fibrosis : an experimental study in a rat biliary duct ligation model?
In this model, liver fibrosis was detected with T1ρ MR imaging; the degree of fibrosis was correlated with degree of increase in T1ρ measurements.
The G79A polymorphism of the PZ gene was shown to be a new independent risk factor for cerebral venous thrombosis. Nevertheless, these results have to be confirmed by a prospective study including plasma PZ evaluation.
