Claim 16:
17. A characterization system for automatically characterizing liver tissue of a patient, comprising:
a first interface configured to receive a morphological magnetic resonance image data set and a magnetic resonance parameter map,
wherein the morphological magnetic resonance image data set and the magnetic resonance parameter map are each associated with an imaging region comprising at least a portion of the liver tissue of the patient and are acquired via a magnetic resonance imaging device;
one or more processors configured to apply a trained function comprising a neural network to input data, the input data comprising the morphological magnetic resonance image data set and the magnetic resonance parameter map; and
a second interface configured to provide generated output data comprising a tissue score describing the liver tissue,
wherein the input data further comprises a magnetic resonance elastography data set of an imaging region comprising at least a portion of the liver tissue of the patient.
