Quantification of pancreatic proton density fat fraction in diabetic pigs using MR imaging and IDEAL-IQ sequence

Abstract Background Recent studies have highlighted the correlation between diabetes and pancreatic fat infiltration. Notably, pancreatic fat content (PFC) is a potential biomarker in diabetic patients, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides an effective method for noninvasive assessment of p...
