The Ultrasound Derived Fat Fraction (UDFF) is a measurement tool to aid physicians in managing adult patients as part of an overall assessment of hepatic steatosis.

Qualitative assessment of hepatic steatosis can be subjective.
Ultrasound Derived Fat Fraction (UDFF) on the ACUSON Sequoia is fast, simple and intuitive. UDFF, with a total exam time of less than 1-minute, can classify hepatic steatosis with a simple to understand cut-off value of greater that 5%, delivering a similar clinical utility as MRI-PDFF.2, 3
Discover how the ACUSON Sequoia can help you provide a cost-effective solution for assessing fatty liver.
