Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aim of this Special Issue is to present the multiparametric imaging used to evaluate focal and diffuse liver pathology, as well as the transplanted liver with an emphasis on advanced imaging techniques (such as spectral computed tomography, CT perfusion of the liver, functional MRI, MR elastography, and mapping T1 and T2), hepatocytic specific contrast material, and imaging biomarkers. Further, this Special Issue will highlight the key points used for rapid and correct imaging diagnostics, the role of interventional radiology in liver tumor treatment and liver transplant complications, and the role of a multidisciplinary team in the management of patients with liver disease or with liver transplantation.
