Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Response - NO
Brief Summary   There is an unmet need for novel, more accurate non-invasive techniques including imaging based techniques in order to improve fibrosis assessment and patient outcomes.  
Development of such biomarkers has been highlighted by the FDA and other regulators as a critical requirement to accelerate drug development for the treatment of NASH NAFLD MAFLD.
An accurate non invasive predictive method for assessing liver fibrosis has appeal and will gain more acceptance among patients and clinicians for disease staging, determine prognosis, guiding treatment strategies, and provides standards for inclusion and end points assessment in clinical trials to avoid unnecessary liver biopsies. 
To meet this unmet need, this study aims to develop predictive models of liver fibrosis based on MRI data analysis outcomes using liver biopsy as the reference standard.
