Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) was obtained at baseline before common bile duct ligation (CBDL). Other baseline measurements included a wedge biopsy of the liver, liver function blood tests, and pressure measurements from the portal vein and hepatic vein. Pressure measurements, along with MRE measurements, blood draws, and transjugular liver biopsies were repeated at four and eight weeks.
