Summary

This study will assess the repeatability of Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE) in both healthy volunteers and Hepatitis C Virus (HCV)-infected patients with fibrosis and lay the groundwork for the validation of MRE as an alternative to liver biopsy.

Conditions

  • Liver Fibrosis
  • Hepatitis C Virus

Interventions

PROCEDURE

MRE

Part 1: Participants will have a screening visit, followed \~1 month later by two imaging visits over \~14 days. Each imaging visit will consist of two liver MRE scans. Part 2: Participants will have a screening visit, followed \~1 month later by one imaging visit. The imaging visit will consist of two liver MRE scans.
