NCT ID NCT07015723
First seen Jan 07, 2026 · Last updated Jun 13, 2026 · Updated 28 times
Summary
This study looks at whether an MRCP scan can accurately measure liver fat instead of a biopsy in people who want to donate part of their liver. A biopsy is invasive and carries risks, while an MRCP is safer and faster. Researchers will compare results from both methods in 90 donors to see if the scan is reliable enough to replace the biopsy.
