2659. Evaluation
of a Vendor-Agnostic, Free-Breathing Fat and Iron Quantification
Technique in Adults and Children

Impact: Free-breathing Pulseq-FAM has excellent
performance in adults and children, and is easily deployable
across multiple vendors. Therefore, Pulseq-FAM may enable
cross-center studies and clinical trials for which sequence
harmonization is crucial, and may encourage additional

2662. Deep
Learning-Driven Estimation of Hepatic Proton Density Fat
Fraction from Routine MRI Sequences as a Substitute for
Quantitative Dixon Imaging
A. Wang, L. Qian, Y. Song, L. Jiang, C. Wang, G. Yang

using standard MRI sequences, enabling liver fat
quantification without the need for qDixon imaging. It also
facilitates the early detection and monitoring of liver
steatosis in routine clinical settings.

2663. Comparative
Analysis of Liver Iron Concentration: Inline R2* of mDixon-Quant
and Multi-Echo Gradient Echo Versus Spin Echo Method
J. Zhang, S. Hipko, N. Ali, D. Akselrod
University of Vermont Medical Center, Burlington, United States
Impact: The Liver Iron Concentration (LIC) calculated
using the inline R2*maps from both 3D mDixon and multi-echo
GRE methods (mGRE) (each with single breath-hold of <12s)
strongly correlated to the FDA approved Ferriscan spin echo
(SE) based method.

2664. Phase-Based
R2 Mapping for Single Breath-Hold Whole-Liver Iron
Quantification : Clinical Validation
D. Tamada, R. Navaratna, J. Weaver, D. Hernando, S. Reeder
University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, United States
Impact: PB-R2 mapping enables rapid, accurate
whole-liver iron quantification within a single breath-hold,
enhancing clinical efficiency and patient comfort. It may
improve iron overload assessment and inspire further
research to address fat bias in R2 mapping.

2665. Quantitative
assessment of liver fibrosis by using hepatocyte uptake ratio
based on T1 mapping
G. Zhang, X. Li, X. Quan, Q. Chan, X. Jin
Department of Radiology, Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, China, guangzhou, China
Impact: To our knowledge, this study marks the first
time hepatocyte uptake ratio has been used to stage liver
fibrosis, which offers a fresh perspective and paves the way
for more accurate evaluation for liver fibrosis in the
future.

2666. Baseline
predictors of adipose tissue proton density fat fraction (PDFF)
reduction in participants undergoing metabolic bariatric surgery
V. Martins, M. Silva, D. Batakis, J. Weeks, Y. Covarrubias,
T. Wolfson, W. Henderson, D. Harris, E. Grunvald, J.
Schwimmer, R. Broderick, G. Jacobsen, L. Funk, A. Lidor, R.
Agni, R. Sappenfield, S. Reeder, C. Sirlin
University of California San Diego, San Diego, United States
Impact: Adipose tissue PDFF, with further research and
validation, could aid as a novel metric in monitoring
metabolic health in patients with obesity and during weight
loss.

2667. Ectopic
abdominal fat measured by MRI-PDFF compared to severity of
subcutaneous adipose tissue fibrosis
S. Anbu Rajan, S. Noworolski, E. Castellanos, D. Alba, M.
Gibbons, P. Hunt, S. Koliwad
University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, United States
Impact: SAT fibrosis is associated with high liver and
pancreatic fat fraction and high visceral to subcutaneous
fat volume ratio, suggesting worse metabolic health,
particularly for those with low BMI and for females.
