Recent Advances in Image Processing Techniques Using Usg and Mri of Liver

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is playing an increasing role in the assessment of patients with liver disease due to its high soft tissue resolution, lack of ionizing radiation and ability to provide functional data. There are various types of diseases in the liver. So, to identify these diseases and to get a clear image of the damaged part various imaging techniques are used mainly Sonography and MR based techniques. These techniques are easy to implement across different MRI platforms, and results in enhanced disease detection and characterization. Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) is used to identify the lesion in the liver, Perfusion Weighted Imaging (PWI) is used to identify the volume and functioning of the cirrhotic liver.
