MR cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is an method allowing noninvasive investigation of biliary and pancreatic disorders. However, the respiratory-triggered 3D MRCP technique requires long acquisition time depending on the breathing rate of patients, which leads to image blurring and motion artifacts. The purpose of this study was to compare the modified RT-SPACE-MRCP protocol and the conventional RT-SPACE-MRCP protocol with respect to image quality as well as the acquisition time.
