Hepato-Renal Ratio (HRR) is a method for the quantitative assessment of liver steatosis based on the processing of ultrasound images. Its reliability has been validated in literature through biopsy and 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy.This paper describes a new method for ROI segmentation and HRR assessment, designed to minimize both inter-observer and inter-scan variability.

Abstract

Hepato-Renal Ratio (HRR) is a method for the quantitative assessment of liver steatosis based on the processing of ultrasound images. Its reliability has been validated in literature through biopsy and 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy.This paper describes a new method for ROI segmentation and HRR assessment, designed to minimize both inter-observer and inter-scan variability.
