Delineation of microhemorrhage in acute hepatic encephalopathy using susceptibility-weighted imaging.

This study set out to assess if MH's occur in characteristic locations and frequency in patients with AHE superimposed on chronic liver failure, and to determine if such findings correlate with the clinical and MRI severity.
