Rationale and ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to determine the optimal weighting factor (WF) for precise quantification using six-point interference Dixon fat percentage imaging by analyzing changes in WFs of fatty acid metabolites (FMs) in high-fat-induced fatty liver disease rat model.Materials and MethodsIndividual FM-related WFs were calculated based on concentration ratios of integrated areas of seven peak FMs with four phantom series. Ten 8-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were used for baseline quantification of fat in liver magnetic resonance imaging or magnetic resonance spectroscopy data. These seven lipid metabolites were then quantitatively analyzed. Spearman test was used for correlation analysis of different lipid proton concentrations. The most accurate WF for six-point interference Dixon fat percentage imaging was then determined.ResultsThe seven lipid resonance WF values obtained from magnetic resonance spectroscopy data for three different oils (oleic, linoleic, and soybean) were different from each other. In lipid phantoms, except for the phantom containing oleic acid, changes in FP values were significantly different when WFs were changed in six-point interference Dixon fat percentage image. The seven lipid resonance WF values for the nonalcoholic fatty liver animal model were different from human subcutaneous adipose tissue lipid WF values.ConclusionsWF affected the calculation of six-point interference Dixon-based fat percentage imaging value in phantom experiment. If WF of liver parenchyma FM which is specific to each liver disease is applied, the accuracy of six-point interference Dixon fat percentage imaging can be further increased.
