Contrast-enhanced MR Angiography (CE-MRA) is ideal for pediatric vascular imaging due to the lack of ionizing radiation. However, pediatric CE-MRA is usually limited by motion and compromised spatiotemporal resolution. General anesthesia (GA) with periods of suspended respiration is often necessary. Recently, a fast free-breathing CE-MRA technique with high spatiotemporal resolution has been developed. It can significantly reduce the level of GA administrated without compromising image quality. In this work, we investigate the clinical performance of free-breathing pediatric time-resolved CE-MRA.
