Backgroud and aim: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a worldwide health problem, which associated with systemic health problems and causes a higher risk of all-cause mortality. The leading causes of death in NAFLD patients are cardiac complications followed by NAFLD-related liver complications. This study aimed to quantitatively measure the contents of liver and cardiac fat with varying degrees of NAFLD in an obese group and a type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) group to explore differences and correlations. Materials and methods: This study included 170 patients who underwent echo asymmetry and least square estimation-iron quantification sequencing at 3.0 T magnetic resonance imaging. Fat fraction values were quantitatively measured in regions of interest of the liver, myocardium, and periapical adipose tissue. Results: In both the obese and T2DM groups, cardiac fat content was correlated with liver fat content using linear regression (P |
