Patients with liver cirrhosis are easily complicated with renal injury, and it is often difficult to find the symptoms of early renal injury in time, which eventually leads to poor prognosis. T2 mapping, as a quantitative MRI technique, can provide quantitative information about the content and composition of water and collagen fibers [1]. The results of this study show that T2 mapping can effectively evaluate the renal damage of liver cirrhosis, so T2 mapping is expected to be an effective way to quantitatively and non-invasively evaluate the renal damage of liver cirrhosis.
