Line chart showed changes of FVF value obtained with MMD over three scan phases (NCP, LAP, PVP) in NAFLD group. Chart was colored to show the results from different liver lobes (RPL in pink, RAL in light green, LLL in blue). Means with error bars were shown. The FVF values increased after the contrast injection, and there were significantly difference among three scanning phases in the FVF values (all p values < 0.001 for each lobe) by Friedman test. Note: FVF fat volume fraction, NAFLD nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, LAP late arterial phase, PVP portal vein phase, NCP non–contrast enhanced phase, RPL right posterior lobe, RAL right anterior lobe, LLL left lateral lobe
