Computer-assisted Sonographic Analysis of the Hepatorenal and Textural Features for the Diagnosis of the Fatty Liver

Computer-assisted Sonographic Analysis of the Hepatorenal and Textural Features for the Diagnosis of the Fatty Liver

We investigated the B-mode ultrasound (US) images of abdomen by normalizing the gray level values of the liver with the representative gray levels (RGL's) of the liver parenchyma, renal cortex, subcutaneous fat, to quantify the fatty infiltration of the liver (FIL). The RGL's were compared...

Description
Summary:We investigated the B-mode ultrasound (US) images of abdomen by normalizing the gray level values of the liver with the representative gray levels (RGL's) of the liver parenchyma, renal cortex, subcutaneous fat, to quantify the fatty infiltration of the liver (FIL). The RGL's were compared with the clinical diagnosis of the FIL showing good correlation between them
