Fig. 1A —46-year-old man with chronic hepatitis C virus cirrhosis (fibrosis stage 4 on liver biopsy). Breath-hold axial single-shot echo-planar diffusion-weighted images obtained with increasing b values show large amount of ascites. Calculated hepatic apparent diffusion coefficient was 1.06 ± 0.10 x10^–3 mm²/s. Breath-hold axial single-shot echo-planar diffusion-weighted MR image obtained at b value of 300 s/mm² shows placement of regions of interest in liver parenchyma.
