Abstract
Magnetic resonance enterography with oral contrast administration using fast T2-weighted and fat saturated, contrast-enhanced T1-weighted sequences is the most common technique for bowel evaluation. The main indication for bowel MR imaging in children has been evaluation of inflammatory bowel diseases. A less common application is appendicitis. Other potential applications include evaluation of vascular malformations and transplanted bowel.
