Synopsis

Keywords: Digestive, Biliary, MRCPTo compare the image quality of NATIVE-TrueFISP and 3D-SPACE in the MRCP of patients with ascites at 3T scanner. 5 patients with ascites and another 5 patients without underwent conventional upper abdominal MRI and MRCP with two kinds of sequences: NATIVE-TrueFISP and 3D-SPACE. The image quality of the two MRCP methods were independently assessed by two readers. Image quality of 3D-SPACE was superior to TrueFISP in patients without ascites while the TrueFISP sequence achieved better duct visualization in patients with ascites. Native TrueFISP can be used as an optional fast imaging sequence for MRCP of patients with ascites.
