Scheme diagram of the pulse sequence used in this study. The pulse sequence starts with a magnetization-reset module. A time period is followed to allow longitudinal signal to recover. DIR and SPAIR are applied during this time period without disrupting liver signal. T1ρ contrast is imparted by T1ρ-prep ahead of imaging data acquisition. 2D fast (turbo) spin echo sequence is used for imaging. DIR, double inversion recovery; SPAIR, spectral attenuated inversion recovery; T1ρ, T1rho.
