- Abstract
- We investigated the B-mode ultrasound (US) images of abdomen by normalizing the gray level values of the liver with the representative gray levels (RGL’s) of the liver parenchyma, renal cortex, subcutaneous fat, to quantify the fatty infiltration of the liver (FIL). The RGL’s were compared with the clinical diagnosis of the FIL showing good correlation between them.
