Summary

This study tested whether an artificial intelligence (AI) program can accurately measure fat in the liver of children using ultrasound images. Fifty children aged 8 to 18 with fatty liver disease took part. The AI's results were compared to MRI, the current gold standard. If proven accurate, this AI method could offer a faster, cheaper, and more accessible way to diagnose and monitor fatty liver in children without needing an MRI.
