Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease | Device: Liver MultiScan |
This is a Registry where there will be no intervention to the standard of care.Participants will be required to attend a single visit that will involve having a multi-parametric MRI at no cost to them. In addition, the invesigators will collect contact information of participants including their email address, phone number and house address so that they can be contacted to discuss possible participation in future studies which may be sponsored by Perspectum or third parties, such as pharmaceutical companies, the participants personal information shall never be shared with these third-parties. Additionally, the contact information of the participants medical providers shall be collected so that, if requested, their LMS reports can be used in their diagnostic pathway.

- Device: Liver MultiScan
The LiverMultiscan is a quick 15 minute, contrast free, non-invasive MRI scan that provides 3 liver metrics
- To build a Registry of volunteers by inviting them to get a LiverMultiScan(LMS)and collecting their contact information to seek their interest in participating in future studies [ Time Frame: 12 months ]
- To use multi-parametric MRI (LMS) of the liver to assess the volunteer's liver health [ Time Frame: 12 months ]
