title: [Progress in magnetic resonance tomography of the liver: value of ultra-rapid imaging and liver-specific contrast media].
abstract: Ongoing technical improvements in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and the development of liver-specific contrast agents are likely to have an impact on the clinical assessment of liver disease. Technical progress towards methods of motion-free MRI and concepts of liver-specific contrast agents are presented. The potential impact of these developments on clinical medicine is discussed.
