BACKGROUND & AIMS: Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is a noninvasive tool for staging liver fibrosis. We conducted a meta-analysis of individual participant data collected from published studies to assess the diagnostic accuracy of MRE for staging liver fibrosis in patients with chronic liver diseases (CLD). METHODS: Through a systematic literature search of multiple databases (2003-2013), we identified studies on diagnostic performance of MRE for staging liver fibrosis in patients with CLD with native anatomy, using liver biopsy as the standard. We contacted study authors to collect data on each participant's age, sex, body mass index (BMI), liver stiffness (measured by MRE), fibrosis stage, staging system used, degree of inflammation, etiology of CLD, and interval between MRE and biopsy. Through a pooled analysis, we calculated cluster-adjusted area under the receiveroperating curve, sensitivity, and specificity of MRE for any fibrosis (>= stage 1), significant fibrosis (>= stage 2), advanced fibrosis (>= stage 3), and cirrhosis (stage 4). RESULTS: We analyzed data from 12 retrospective studies, comprising 697 patients (mean age, 55 +/- 13 y; 59.4% male; meanBMI, 26.9 +/- 6.7kg/m(2); 92.1% with< 1year interval betweenMREandbiopsy; and 47.1% with hepatitis C). Overall, 19.5%, 19.4%, 15.5%, 15.9%, and 29.7% patients had stage 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 fibrosis, respectively. Themean area under the receiver-operating curve values (and 95% confidence intervals) for the diagnosis of any (>= stage 1), significant (>= stage 2), advanced fibrosis (>= stage 3), and cirrhosis, were as follows: 0.84 (0.76-0.92), 0.88 (0.84-0.91), 0.93 (0.90-0.95), and 0.92 (0.90-0.94), respectively. A similar diagnostic performance was observed in stratified analysis based on sex, obesity, and etiology of CLD. The overall rate of failure of MRE was 4.3%. CONCLUSIONS: Based on a pooled analysis of data from individual participants, MRE has a high accuracy for the diagnosis of significant or advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis, independent of BMI and etiology of CLD. Prospective studies are warranted to better understand the diagnostic performance of MRE.
