Abstract
FIESTA (FastImagingEmployingSteady-stateAcquisition) is commonlyacceptedthatbelongstotheclass of gradient-echosequence (1). FIESTA has provedto be useful in abdominalimagingformagneticresonansimaging (MRI) ofgastrointestinalsystem, oncologicimagings, assessingvascularpatency. However, FIESTA MRI findings of fattyliver has not previouslybeenreported, although it describedthesignalreductionduetofat in previousarticles. Weobservedthatthepatientswithfattyliver had lowersignalintensity (SI) values at FIESTA sequencescomparedto normal patientswithoutfattyliver.
