Abstract
In the field of obesity related disease, identification of patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) would be useful to counsel them more intensively on diet and lifestyle changes and propose new pharmacological treatments. As a consequence, the inventors worked on a method for post-processing images of a region of interest of the liver for reconstructing a map of the internal magnetic susceptibility by using a Bayesian regularization approach to inverse the internal magnetic field. Such method can be implemented on computer and provides better results than other known methods for obesity related disease. This method may be applied for predicting that a subject is at risk of suffering from such disease, diagnosing a disease, identifying a therapeutic or a biomarker and screening compounds useful as a medicine.
