liver {poset}

A dataset from a non-alcoholic fatty liver disease study

Description

A total of 186 patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease were recruited at the University of Wisconsin Hospitals in 2017. The patients underwent computed tomography scan of the liver for the presence of non-alcoholic steato-hepatitis, the most severe form of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. The image was subsequently assessed by two radiologists using a scale of 1 to 5, with higher values indicating greater likelihood of disease. This is a slightly altered dataset from the one used in Mao (2024).
