Association between liver diffusion-weighted imaging apparent diffusion coefficient values and other measures of liver disease in pediatric autoimmune liver disease patients.

Liver DWI ADC values are significantly associated with liver and spleen stiffnesses, liver cT1, ALT, GGT, and participant sex, with liver stiffness and sex remaining significant at multivariable regression. Liver ADC ultimately may play a role in multi-parametric prediction of chronic liver disease/fibrosis severity.
