Recent magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) studies have reported the potential of this noninvasive method for diagnosing hepatic fibrosis based on the elastic properties of liver tissue. However, in many cases biological tissue responds to mechanical vibrations as a combined solid-liquid body causing MRE-derived elastic parameters to become functions of the applied vibration frequency. Therefore a multi-frequency MRE study of liver was performed and the potential of the method for separating healthy from fibrotic liver was investigated. The aim of this study was the increase of the accuracy of liver elastography by analyzing multi-frequency MRE examinations using the springpot model.
