From: Recent advances in non-invasive diagnosis and medical management of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in adult

Grading of fatty liver

Hydrogen-1 MR spectroscopy findings

Grade 0 steatosis

Proton density fat fraction threshold of less than 17.0%

Grade 1 steatosis

Proton density fat fraction threshold of 17.0–38.6%

Grade 2 or greater steatosis

Proton density fat fraction threshold greater than 38.6%
