Abstract

Park, MacLean, et al. conduct an exome-wide association study of liver fat content in the Penn Medicine BioBank.<sup>1</sup> By leveraging machine learning-assisted analysis of clinical CT scans to quantify steatosis, they uncover previously undescribed liver fat-associated genetic variants.
