Figure 1 Prevalence of NAFLD as assessed by 2 large prospective studies. The San Antonio study used US as a screening modality for NAFLD in a tertiary care referral center. All patients found to have NAFLD on imaging were offered a liver biopsy, thus allowing for the calculation of NASH prevalence. The Dallas Heart Study performed magnetic resonance spectroscopy to assess for NAFLD in a large urban population.
