What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This research study is being conducted to find out more about advanced ultrasound techniques to non-invasively evaluate liver disease in children. The investigators are developing advanced techniques for analyzing ultrasound data and images of the liver, and they will compare it to other established methods used to evaluate the liver, including liver MRI. The investigators plan to develop and test the advanced analysis techniques using conventional full-size ultrasound machines and, if possible, small handheld devices. Our goals are: * To assess the accuracy of the advanced ultrasound analysis techniques in children * To implement and assess these advanced technique on small handheld ultrasound devices, if possible
