MR is playing anincreasing role in the evaluation of gastrointestinal disorders. MRI combines the advantages of excellent soft-tissue contrast, noninvasiveness, functional informationand lack of ionizing radiation. Furthermore, recent developments of MRI have led to improved spatial and temporal resolution as well as decreased motion artifacts. Inthis article we describe the technical aspects of gastroin-testinal MRI and present a practical approach for a well-known spectrum of gastrointestinal disease processes.展开更多
