This progress underscores the need for an accurate and universally applicable non-invasive imaging modality tailored for IPFD quantification. Chemical shift-encoded magnetic resonance imaging (CSE-MRI) is a non-ionising, time-efficient technique thought to be naturally fit for IPFD quantification because of its excellent fat\u2013water separation. However, this assumption has not yet been systematically evaluated. The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review assessing the validity of CSE-MRI in measuring IPFD.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Materials and methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A systematic search was performed in MEDLINE, Embase, and Scopus databases.
