Fig. 2 T1-weighted MRI intensity (expressed as signal-to-noise ratio) of the different brain regions in patients with cirrhosis and mild HE (▩; n = 9), no HE (▨; n = 10), or in healthy subjects (□; n = 6). Values are presented as median and interquartile range. *P < 0.01 and **P < 0.05 vs. healthy subjects.

Fig. 3 Spectra obtained at MRS in BG and occipital WM from a (A) typical patient with cirrhosis and (B) healthy subject. Arrows indicate abnormal metabolite ratios (Ino/Cr and Cho/Cr) in patients with cirrhosis.
