Comparison is made between the reliability of two imaging methods (ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging) to measure changes in the size of the liver in patients undergoing treatment for Gaucher disease. The reliability of either modality in estimating liver size is comparable, as is the reliability of demonstrating changes in the size of the liver with time. The precision of the two measurements is roughly the same.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
