Steatosis grade index and the corresponding average percent fat derived from the fat quantification imaging data for each patient. Material properties at a particular steatosis grade were determined using the material characteristic curves established in previous work but with a modified scale based on the human data range [43], [49]. For liver parenchyma, an average fat percentage value across the entirety of the liver was used within (7) to produce a homogenous tissue property. In the case of Tumor Informed Digital Twin, a voxel-by-voxel fat fraction value within the tumor imaging data using (7) was employed for a highly heterogeneous property description. With each tissue type, properties are provided, as well as the exponential factor
associated with (7) model.
