Study Summary

This clinical study will involve performing a series of medical imaging procedures of the abdomen using both ultrasound and MRI modalities in subjects at risk for or already diagnosed with Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD). The primary objective of this clinical study is to evaluate the clinical feasibility of an investigational ultrasound technique for quantifying liver fat by comparing specific ultrasound-derived biomarkers with the liver fat percentage obtained from MRI Proton Density Fat Fraction (MRI-PDFF) measurements. All subjects enrolled in this study will undergo two investigational abdominal ultrasound examinations using the Philips EPIQ Ultrasound System and one MRI PDFF examination according to the clinical standard of care.

Primary Outcome

For each biomarker per subject, multiple quantitative measurements were acquired on the same day by two different operators. The difference between the two operators was calculated at the subject level by averaging multiple measurements. To assess the correlation between measurements derived from the investigational LFQ feature and the 'clinical' MRI-PDFF fat fraction obtained from the subject's medical record. A higher HRI value indicates greater liver fat accumulation, which reflects a worse o
